Isn't the internet a wonderful resource?
Last week I completed a complicated online form asking permission to transfer an audio tape we have onto CD. Amazingly the suppliers are still selling the tape, not CD, with their workbooks. Very kindly they have agreed we can do this so now the dilemma was - how do I do it? Googling "transfer audio tape to CD" immediately brought up nearly half a million suggestions. How did we find these things out before Google?

thanks for your efforts Jane! Now to decide which of the .5 million ways to do it!!

Jane, I believe there is some software 'hidden' in windows which allows you to copy tapes and turn them into wav files. You have to have a dubbing wire that goes from the tape deck into the computer - the quality isn't great but it does work. The wav file can be converted to mp3 or even mp4 (I do this by right clicking the file and opening it in itunes). I will do some more research, as I have lots of demo tapes of my brother in law's band from the 80's - Nilon Bombers - number 2 in Japan in 1995, NME Indie single of the week, etc...
