[AT] OT--taped audio to CD audio??

[Mike Sloane]

While Larry is correct, you will probably not be all that happy with the 
results - the sound quality of most PC sound cards is not good. You 
would be better off with one of the many inexpensive third party devices 
that go from the analog player to the USB port, bypassing the sound 
card. They usually come with software packages that permit you to 
control the recording, edit, remove clicks/pops, etc. (Audacity by 
SoundForge is one of the better examples of the free software.)

Take a look at <http://www.altoedge.com/usbaudio/> for an example.
