Dear Linux users,

(Most of this is over my head but) I need to copy some old analogue audio cassette recordings into mp3 files.  Two nights ago I found an old cassette deck being thrown out for a Council pickup day. How would you go about getting the analog stereo output of that into the single microphone input line that most PC's/laptops have? Can it be done through cable connections or can it only be done by playing it and using a microphone to record it (which would have to result in a loss of considerably more sound quality). Also, can an older Hi-Fi amplifier be interfaced with wire to a PC?
