The onternet jukeboxes are putting regular ones out of business. More overhead...because you need to supply it with an internet connection. But they are taking over. The sizes vary...they're usually smaller than a trafitional, but still take up room.
The "remote heads" one talked about. They're called wallboxes. Seeburg included the stepper units to run them in the jukeboxes, the other guys, it was usually an extra add-on. That is one reason you see more Seeburg wallboxes than anything else.
Funny story about that. This diner up in NW DC (Chevy Chase neighborhood) has a bubbler reproduction...not sure if its the Wurlitzer OMT or the Rock-Ola clone...but they're using vintage wallboxes with it through the use of a converter. I can't remember if its a diner up here in Fairfax or one out in Warrenton (I live in Virginia) has a hide-a-way unit that's controlled exclusively by wallboxes. This allowed them to stick the guts of the unit somewhere and save space.
