Can this be done? What hardware and software would I need? Do I maybe want to take it someplace to have it done. I have a few cassettes that I would like on cd so that I can listen to them in my car. No, I cant just go buy them on cd or I would.
 
It will take a lot of time, but the only way I know of to do this is to hook a tape deck up to your sound card's "Line In" jack and record each track as a WAV file.

Like hunting moose with a plastic spatula...

Yes, you -could- do it, but it's not really normal and people are going to look at you funny.

I know people who do LP -> mp3 all the time.

Even pirate groups do it for rare LPs!

How is cassette -> mp3 different from LP -> mp3?
 
I did this for a friend. It's not hard at all.
I used cool edit and recorded both sides of the tape. After I had it all recorded I split it up into different tracks and it was ready to burn.
 
i think so - but it would be silly

1. capture it as a mpeg with only audio

2. open vdub and save as wav

3. encode to mp3 in your favorite program

4. burn to cd
