An actual answer to your question...

It has to do with geometry and theory plain and simple. The curved arms place the cartridge in a place where the straight ones cannot and the arc of travel is more of a straight line and more parallel to the record grooves. There seems to be some confusion however about the "straight" arms. A truly straight arm(NOT with angled headshell) is for DJ scratching ONLY.
