Were you planning on purchasing all the MP3s you were putting on that jukebox?



Another good point.

You would also be about 10 times more likely to encounter an mp3 related legal problem than an arcade related ones.

I say just build the machine and leave all content off. Whoever buys it should be smart enough to figure out how to add their own music. Also, put a big "FOR HOME USE ONLY" sign on it.

It is probably more work to setup your music collection in a jukebox then the 5 minutes to plug in a 60 in 1 board.   If I had my options I would rather get the jamma cab without a board then a juke without music.  A short wait and a 60 in 1 could be in the next owner's hands.  The music setup can be a nightmare if they are not literate with how the jukebox software wants the music arranged.

technically you aren't selling the  60 in 1  board, you would be donating it.
