The YouTube videos are pretty poor quality, here's a better one that at least gets closer to the mechanism as it is operating:

I promise, if anyone sends me one of these, I'll take the best video possible and post it!
I can agree to an extent on the MP3 jukebox not being the same as a 45 or 78 rpm original, as there is something very tactile about seeing the mechanism doing its thing. Maybe that's one reason why the new "One More Time" replicas don't appeal to me as much.
The tube amp would have something to do with it as well, as it would have a sound that isn't going to be the same with a contemporary solid state amp.
However, the replicas still have the bubbles and lights, and that's something. I've always liked the design of that box, with the wood, the chrome, the red buttons, the lights, and the bubbles. Somebody knew what they were doing when they created that design!
