This has been the most unhelpful thread i've ever made thanks.

I know someone who has one those turntables and it came w/ some freeware. Here's the link: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/
There's a trick to getting the audio to work and here's the info.

1. Launch Audacity: Click on the Start menu on the bottom left of
your screen. Select All Programs, then Audacity.
2. In Audacity, click on the Edit menu at the top of the screen.
3. Select Preferences from the Edit menu.

The Audacity Preferences window will come up (Figure 2).
Choose the Audio I/O tab from the top of the Preferences
screen.

4. Set your Playback Device to your internal sound card. Since
different computers have different internal sound cards, your
selection may be different from the image below (Figure 2). The
correct selection, however, will NOT be USB Audio Codec,
Microsoft Sound Mapper or Modem.
5. Set your Recording Device to USB Audio Codec. This
represents your turntable.

Note: The USB turntable may show up with a different name in
the Preferences window. This may depend on your computer
model and operating system. 99% of the time it will contain
“USB” in the Name.

6. Set Channels to 2 (Stereo).
7. Check the box labeled Software Playthrough.
8. Under the Quality tab, set the Default Sample Format to 16-
bit.
9. Select OK to save your settings and close the Preferences
window.
10. At the top of the main Audacity window, to the right of the play
control buttons, you will see the input and output level meters
(labeled L and R). Under the output level meter, is an icon that
looks like a microphone. Next to the microphone is a black
arrow that points down. Click this arrow and select Monitor
Input. (If you don't see the input and output level meters, open
your Preferences again as described above, select the Interface
tab, and make sure that Enable Mixer Toolbar is checked.)

You should be all ready to record. Hope this helps out!

lol, I use Cool Edit Pro 2.1(though I can't stand no 24-bit recording and lack of asio support.) But that looks really helpful, i'll go try that now, thank you .

As for the quality, do any audiophiles have advice as to which is better recording:
16-bit/48000Hz via usb(digital)
or
24-bit/96000Hz via analouge sound card line in.
