I thought they sold reproductions of the wax records. They sell thumb drives instead.

Wonder how much data can a wax record store. Anyone care to calculate it?

The bandwidth (in the spectrum sense) is less than a phone landline with more noise. So ‘sub 1kbaud’ (times total recording length) is probably a reasonable initial guesstimate.
