edit: I just read your OP which says that you don't want the hassle of buying a cassette deck that can play and record. So nevermind my response. But buying one of those is actually pretty easy if you have any thrift stores up there in Nowhere, USA.
Well you've made it that much easier for me, I was wondering which program to use. I'm making a friend a post-punk mix tape for Christmas.
