Why not just get a *real* turntable (there are still ****loads of

That won't get the music onto CD or MP3.


It will if you plug the receiver into the sound card. That's how I've
been doing it for years.


I use a small phono preamp that provides RIAA curve equalization and output
to the PC's sound card.


Right, same difference.

I wonder if you can even buy those little preamps anymore? Used to be
able to get them even from Radio Shack (ugh).
