I'd like to just borrow one of these
I'd have no use for it once I'd recorded my vinyl

Assuming you already have a record deck
It's cheaper to stick an Audiophile 2496 into your pc & record from your current record deck. Tidy the files up in the audio editor of your choice, job done, your computer has a decent soundcard in & almost certainly better quality rips than from a USB turntable.

Yeah true
I've been recording straight from the rec output of my mixers into a Soundblaster Audigy 2 Gold then using Audio Cleaning Lab to normalise the tracks. By the time the mixes are on CD they sound pretty decent, certainly good enough for what I want them for
