will be to get a turtntable with 78rpm on it -most onlyhave 33 and 45 rpm.

Once that has been achieved challenge #2 be will be to digitise either by using a hifi burner or getting an interface with your computer.

I use the former which is simpler and good qual but the discs are expensive -as is the unit.

there are tunrtables with a USB that can plug into your computer but I'd be amazed if any had 78 rpm capacity

good luck

Do a 78 turntable, although it is not cheap.
There's a Garrard sp25 for sale on Ebay

Technically I think you could play your 78s at 33 and a third or 45 speed, and then speed it up to 78 speed once you've got it in your computer.

The only thing you'd need is a different stylus because the grooves on 78s are wider than on the other vinyl formats, so if you don't change the stylus then you'll have the stylus dragging along between the grooves and making a horrible rumble.

other record you have. Cassettes too I believe although I've not tried it as yet. I've seen other brands that were even cheaper. This TEAC is the one I have.

you could try finding one of the 78 Transcription torrents that have hundreds of old 78s in MP3 format.

I've got one that's nearly 6Gb of (sometimes crackly) joy. Here's the contents list: http://www.divshare.com/download/6247692-3ca

Let me know if you'd like a copy on a couple of DVD-Rs - all the stuff is long out of the lawyer's mitts.
