I have a bunch of cassettes with old DJ mixes, and even old mix tapes from junior high relationships (wow, I'm old). I'd want to digitize them just for the hell of it, and just for kicks. This is a simple way to do it.

The half dozen pairs of Hammer pants in the far corner of your closet might come back into style, but the mixtapes intended for your high school crush that are crammed into three shoeboxes with accompanying love letters?

We know how much effort you put into the perfect puppylove playlist of Tears for Fears and Babyface on those tapes, but your crush got married eight years ago. It's time to let go.

Pop those cassettes into the USB Cassette Deck, digitize them into MP3s, and reorder those songs into a new mix on your laptop, updated for 2007.

Burning the love letters, though, is up to you.

For all those tapes of old band recordings back when you were young...

Nice to convert to mp3 and play for the kids. Or just to share online with your fellow band mates to remind them just how 'cool' your music was back then.

Completely plug and play with no special drivers required, the USB Cassette Deck comes with idiot-proof Audacity and EZ Tape Converter software. This allows you to archive your recordings directly into iTunes® in a few clicks. Just think, you could be listening to old mix tapes on your MP3 player or burning CDs of that ancient recording of your gran prattling on about the price of Spam. (via FireBox)

Cassettes where the sh%t when I was growing up. They even gave birth to 'mixtapes' funny enough even mix CDs are now called mixtapes. If you still have any Cassettes you can Archive them to MP3 or CD!

I can't think of any reason why you'd want to turn cassette quality music into MP3s. But if you do, this is the way to do it.

A great and easy way to transfer your cassette music to your laptop so they can be played on any mp3 player.

IF U R OLD SCHOOL LIKE ME.
