I'm honestly interested in opinions concerning the direction of jukebox collecting as a whole, particularly with the newer made 1015 boxes.  I'd like to get a collector's view overall, (and not a salesman's view), and is why I'm posting:

       -   Is there a big interest-following for the recreated jukeboxes, (Antique 
                    Apparatus, One-More-Time, etc)?
       -   Which is more desirable?  Vinyl or CD Boxes?  Are people opting for
                    the convenience of vinyl playing boxes, or the larger selection of 
                    CD playing boxes?
       -   Is there an honorable interest for the "Non-1015" recreations, (Gazelle, 
                    Peacock, Harley Davidson, etc)?
       -   Are there any notable problems with their performance, (breakdowns,           
                    sound quality, etc)? 
       -   Overall, are all jukebox prices increasing considerably because so
                    many are being imported?

I know it's all about what the buyer happens to like, and the newer creations come with much glitter and a great sound.  Then again, should I make such a purchase, the day will probably come when I'd like to move on and sell it for perhaps another vintage machine, or just to downsize.  Do these boxes have a reasonable resale value?  

All opinions are appreciated.  If you have anything you'd like to add, please do!   Thanks in advance!
