I have a quantity of older LPs that I want to rip into MP3s. I am looking for advice on the cheapest way to get the audio into my Mac, then convert them into MP3s. I have the following 2 Macs that I can use:

A close to stock beige G3 266 with the Wings av board (sound in and out) running 9.2.1 and a Digital Audio 533 (bumped up to 933) running 10.2.8.

I am guessing the cheapest way to do this is to run my amp into the beige (what app will capture the sound and record it to disk?) then use the G4 to convert these to MP3s by transferring them via the network. Is there a cheap way to get the analog input into the G4? Will iTunes convert analog audio to MP3s?

I know this is very easy to do with Cds, but this is music from my younger days and a lot of it is not available on CDs nor the iTunes store.

Thanks
Len
