For those of you old enough to remember LPs and that still have 'em...

LP-to-MP3 Converter

The first of its kind, this belt-driven turntable plugs into your computer via USB, plays, converts, and saves your prized vinyl LPs to MP3 format for playback on an iPod, or other MP3 device, allowing you to take your favorite out-of-print music, comedy, and spoken-word recordings anywhere you go without risk. In addition to providing high-speed vinyl audio conversion to MP3, the turntable plays LPs at 3313 and 45 rpm speeds (adapter included), and its adjustable anti-skating control provides increased stereo balancing. Includes 1/8"" RCA output and cable for connection to a stereo system equipped with either a CD or AUX input. The system includes recording and cleaning software (PC/Mac) for the removal of scratches, hisses, and pops, but will operate with any software that supports USB audio input sound cards. 20 1/4" W x 3" H x 17" D. (8 3/4 lbs.)

I am soooooo tempted!
What amazed me, is the price is reasonable.
My system is in storage right now, but I have my LPs.
This is not to say that it isn't simply a matter of using my computer as another tape deck and archiving stuff that way, but it does save space and makes for easier operation.
I'm wondering if [livejournal.com profile] cakmpls "J" has seen this?

Addendum:
The catalogue description says that it will do "high-speed" conversion to mp3 format.
I'm going to assume they mean once the computer gets the signal it digitizes it very quickly.
Otherwise I can imagine a Chipmunk version of Doris Day doing "Que Sera Sera" resounding through my house.

I sent her...
