I was wondering, is there a difference between jukebox 45's and regular 45's? if so, which is more desirable?

also, it seems to me that a jukebox would take better care of a record than a teenager would have back in the day, so the jukebox ones would be in better shape. is this a correct assesment?
 
same thing, a 45 is a 45. Now, I've seen some of the 45's that come out of jukeboxes. :(
My 4 year old handles his cd's better. :eek:
 
Depends of the Jukebox and how it was serviced. Some used cheap ceramic cartidges and never had their styli changed until they wouldn't play records anymore. Some had magnetic cartridges and were blessed with techs that changed stylus' on a regular basis. Either way, the 45's got a lot of play unless the song was a dog. I have records I bought as far back as when I was eight years old and they still look and play like brand new.
