One thing that would be useful but I don't know if it's available is some way to insert track markers when there's a break between sections. I used to use a Sony CD recorder that required special music CDs and would accept an auxiliary input from a phono jack. I remember the problem with recording records was that oftentimes it would be one looong track. Autobreaks were often in odd places. But that was 4 years ago so I assume the technology's better now.

Ion makes a turntable that plugs into the USB port, it seems like a descent unit but I have not tried it.
I found this laypersons review of the unit.

If you have a nice turntable and stereo set I would get a external usb audio/videao capture board.

If you only have a couple of vinyls it makes more sense to buy the CD(if you like every song) or the mp3 if it is just one track your after. You can get just about any song online. If you look hard enough.
