Those Gloria Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine cassettes you've got sitting around aren't getting any younger. And that box of old classic rock vinyl that you rescued from your dad's basement, those are just going to sound worse as time goes on. It's time for you to stop being lazy and to digitize your old but still gold music collection to modern MP3 format. This InstantMusic Vinyl & Cassette Ripper will hook your archaic music player to your computer for easy conversions, allowing you to bring the music that you listened to in the early 80s to your iPod. You can also burn CDs directly from your analogue sources, and the RCA jacks will also allow you to record from DVDs or the TV if you're so inclined. So go ahead, drop $50 on this little gadget and then you can go from not listening to the tapes in your closet to not listening to the MP3s you made from the tapes sitting on your hard drive. — Adam Frucci
