Re: throw away society


Bonnie,
As far as I know there's no way to input from a stereo system to a computer
to record on a cd burner unless you have very sophisticated equipment.  I
have the other kind of cd burner that uses audio cds connected to my stereo
system.  This is the only economical way I can think of to burn from vinyl
to cd, tape to cd, radio to cd, tv to cd.
