Feeding Your Media Player

At this month's TLUG meeting, Colin McGregor gave a talk on feeding your media player under Linux. In other words, if you use linux, what tools do you need to "acquire" the music and video for your media player. The talk was originally presented to a beginner Linux user group so it avoided too much technical details, but it was interesting nonetheless. One surprise was that Colin covered digitizing audio cassettes for those who are feeling nostalgia for the 1980's.
