Here’s another way to snag all of that music you’ve got on LP, cassette, and even eight-track: the iKey USB Audio Recorder. The iKey can capture and record to any USB device (including iPods) in either MP3 or WAV format in real time. Compatible with USB 1.0/1.1/2.0 devices, the iKey has gold-plated RCA jacks to accept input from pretty much any standard audio component. It’s also pretty small and light, so you can take it with you on the road (not sure why you’d want to, but it’s your choice). The downside is that you do have to manually start and stop the recording of the track and then edit it so that it has the song info, but then you probably already figured that out!
