I have dozens of cassettes. Great music too. Is there any way to easily put them on CD or whatever computer vodoo they do now, or do I chalk them up with my my albums (yes I do sometimes stick needles in my music ;)) and say "Gee it was fun while it lasted"? Thoughts?

wife just converted old VHS tapes to DVD's via a samsung converter. They have record players, yes, good ol' LP's that USB to CD.
I'm sure I've seen one for cassettes.
-
I bought a Nero program a few years back that will capture the audio (must plug into computer) and convert it into whatever format you want. don't know if they still sell it though.

Haven't done business with DAK in several years, but his stuff was reliable when I did. It appears he is still in business.

Use the microphone input jack and mp3 recording software at the computer and audio out from your cassette player, biggest drawback is recording will be in real time.
-
dazzle comes to mind, lets you plug in several diffrent type of conections into a USB drive. it also has the software need for capture

Thanks for askin' FQ....I need to do the same thing....

Just for that MATE, I'll be sure to digitize my old Midnight Oil "Blue Sky Minining" tape and post it. "Hey, Hey, Hey,.........".
Get that out of your head now, I dare you. ;D

An eminently forgettable song.
Well, at least the lead singer has that whole Uncle Fester look going for him.

Why do you think I threatened you with them? ;D I mean great harmonica and all, but they make Pelosi look like Reagan. Normally, I don't care about a band's politics, but these guys were more a political ad than a band.
FQ13 who does like that opening harp riff though. ;)
