Flipping the LP over ...

... do you keep the TT running and just yank the LP off, or do you shut the 'table off first?

Curious as to everyone's habit on that... :)

No static build up, no scratches, no chance of slipping and dropping the LP and sending it toward the cartridge. No time is saved by leaving it on and besides listening to vinyl is a ritual.
