Have a huge audio tape collection and think it is high time I started

mp3 or what?

Audacity to record the files as WAV audio, then FLAC to archive them on your
server and MP3 to carry them around. Delete the WAV once you've finished
twiddling with it.

I have used audacity in the past and it worked fine.
At the time I thought it was such a shame I could not just get them out
of the library on CD and rip them - after all I had paid for them at
least once - some I had on tape and vinyl - but that would be illegal
and I could not possibly do that.
