    I know it’s not great, but at the end of the day, a second sound card recording the first one gets the job done. I have loads of rips I did that way. It’s kind of annoying to splice the samples and re-encode them with the correct tags though. But by the time you figure out how to rip something directly, you may find that re-recording the audio is quicker.

      Ah yes, the modern day equivalent of recording radio broadcasts to magnetic tape. Made a few mixtapes that way myself. They were absolute garbage quality and I never listen to them anymore, but it was an interesting exercise and my only option for some stuff at the time.

      Now I just buy as directly from the artist as I can for things that are rare enough that they are difficult to pirate.

        we were “clever” and called the ka-chunk tapes because of the terrible song transitions. Yes Bandcamp has been my purchase site for a while now
