Also because I have stuff on vinyl that was never released on CD. Lots of it. It's not that unusual.

Noticed "Love" on Amazon in a vinyl+Cd bundle: so after years of getting us to pay high prices for CD copies of our old vinyl, now they get us to buy both at the same time.

Originally posted by Cowboy BobI've never seen a laptop without line in, though I've seen them without mic in (my MacBook has no mic in, but has line in). Are you sure you're not getting it the wrong way round? Since laptops have built in condenser mics they'd forego the mic in I'd have assumed.
Or, as you said, get a USB input box. M-audio stuff is pretty good, though may be a tad expensive unless you're a pro.
Same for old Toshiba, and on that I did not that it was Mic in the instructions too.

Originally posted by lukemgWhy bother ! Unless and probably even if you have some obscure stuff on vinyl, you should be able to find a copy on the internet - emule, limewire, not to mention all the pay sites ???

Our amp is new though, a Rotel powering a couple of Tannoy speakers.

Oh yeah, you'll need something to remove the hiss and crackle as well. The best program I've found for this is Gnome Wave Cleaner for Linux. I'd recommend downloading the free VMWare Player and an Ubuntu virtual appliance to get it going.

Originally posted by expatUnfortunaltely many laptops don't have a Line In, just Mic. That is a different voltage and is not properly balanced for Line either. If you have a good vinyl collection and a good player, you might want to get a USB sound card.
