The best way to get the best digital recording is to get a Philips or similar CD recorder. Then record your LPs at CD rate (instead of the half-speed computer rate). From there the CD can be ripped to the computer and an audio connection made, or MP3 player connected.
you can do really good high-bitrate recording with a proper ADC (analog-to-digital converter) such as the (dated) PreSonus Firebox that i use; there are many options, from very inexpensive USB units to spendy audiophile types
also note that it's becoming more common to find digital music downloads recorded at much better than "CD quality"; just an example (not an endorsement):
