If they had joints, they'd be arthritic. If they were made of flesh and bone, they would be mummified. And if they had voices, they'd be begging you for help.
"They" are the members of your vinyl record and audio cassette collection that are aging ungracefully in a dark (and hopefully moisture-free) closet or garage. The music on them misses you as much as you miss them. Even if you had players in good working order, the combination of overuse and neglect might make the next time you play them the last time. But of course, consigning them to the trash is not an option -- too many pleasant memories, and too many songs that you can't buy anymore.
Luckily, technological advancements have once again come to the rescue. As with pocket calculators, mobile phones and portable cassette players, the software and hardware needed for converting to MP3 from albums and cassettes are no longer the exclusive turf of high-priced engineers. Now there are converters and software you can use to save your recordings as MP3 files which you can listen to on smart phones and MP3 players, or convert to CDs.
If this sounds like a great opportunity to save the music on your audio cassettes and start enjoying it again, you should visit http://www.convertingtomp3.com, and here's why:
Converting To MP3.com is where you can find more information, plus one-stop shopping for software and converters to MP3 for audio cassette converters and vinyl LPs. You'll find that very reasonably priced -- at least, as compared to the price of buying a digital copy of every song you have in that box of audio cassettes!
