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.)

Which reminds me, I need a new 78 turntable too. My old one is just too wonky now. Scandalous -- I paid $15 for it in 1985, and it's already going bad on me. What's the world coming to?
