Obama did nothing like that and that's actually proven from the documents you're like linking  to.  Obama changed these countries from lowest security level (the visa waiver program) into the second lowest category a while back.
This has nothing to with travel bans and it wouldn't make any sense, because there a several countries that are considered much more dangerous countries of origin, i.e. UAE, Saudi-Arabia. 
 

A large number? Don't kid yourself. Out of approx. 5 million Syrian refugees the US have taken a 10.000 cherry-picked ons. Germany for example has taken an estimated 300.000 and the countries around Syria obviously many, many more. 
 
But that's not the point at all. How many refugees to take or not is obviously a very important thing to discuss.  But that is not what Trump did and nothing he will do.
He simply signed an order to ban the entry into the US from 7 randomly chosen countries, without any reason whatsoever. There is no immigration to the US by people just flying into JFK or LAX and wandering out of there unnoticed by the authorities. No one touches American soil on an airport without being vetted pre-flight. 
And that's why pretty much EVERYONE who has been affected  and turned away on the border (or detained, interrogated) due to Trumps order has been mistreated  in spite of possessing valid, legal paperwork to enter the US, i.e. visa, green card etc. That's not just a tiny glitch, that's  an incomprehensible amount of malevolence and incompetence.
 

There are already vetting processes in place that take quite a while. This executive order was not putting a bandage on an emergency open wound. If there was an area of that process that needed to be improved and if reform was a legitimate concern, it should have been addressed clearly and specifically. Instead, a list of countries was chosen based on their religion and not history of incidents amongst its refugees while countries that do have a history of incidents with its refugees were not included on the list (and there is an overlap there between the list of countries that our president has business relationships with). In my opinion, the executive order, in practice, re-enforced pre-existing prejudices about muslims and added fuel to the disinformation frenzy rather than addressing any tangible issues. There are legitimate questions and concerns about immigration and the executive order didn't address them other than to pose an oversimplified binary of SECURING AMERICA / LETTING REFUGEES RUN AMOK, which is inaccurate and not based in any reality. 

A ) All immigrants, green card holders, visitors etc. to the US  are already being vetted by the strictest standards in the whole fucking world. There are simply no ideas on the table on how this "vetting" can be improved in any way.  It's just a stupid charade, but it's hurting real people. 
 
B ) Who are "their" minorities? The muslims, who all look the same and are kinda dangerous? Just as an example, the main culprits for 9/11 came from Egypt, Saudi-Arabia and UAE, all countries who are NOT affected by Trumps order. 
 
C ) Categorizing people as potentially dangerous for du to their religion or ethnicity is very clearly an unlawful discrimination. 
This whole anti-islamic sentiment is just as dangerous as anti-semitism and just as unacceptable. No Syrian refugee has killed anyone in the US, unlike white supremacy terrorists, toddlers playing with guns, police officers or Presidents sending soldiers into pointless wars for oil.

Looks are important and if you don't like the look, maybe you better buy something else. You are probably aware that the Marantz TT is manufactured by Clearaudio, so why not check out their line of products, i.e. this one:

I'm totally fine with keeping it available. But selling a "limited bundle" of a vinyl repress to vinyl-loving customers, where the vinyl itself is not limited at all? Call me snob or an asshole but I hate it. I would have prefered if they made 500 orange vinyl for the bundle and then kept selling black or yellow or whatever color afterwards. And I'm pretty sure that most labels would have handled it that way.

I would hate if they simply kept selling orange vinyl long after the posters are gone.

Because it looks cool. Same with picture discs. And to a lesser extent, with all colored vinyl.
This thread has tempted me to buy the GID version, just to see how bad it really is.
