if the material is available from iTnes or elsewhere in digital

quality will be better if you just get a digital version.

Of course if the material is not available, then.....

Yep, I wouldn't even consider wasting time and money unless it is
something you can't live without and can't get elsewhere. Even grabbing
stuff off youtube that someone else has done is probably going to be
just as good.
But if you have rare soundesk recordings of good artists not available
elsewhere, it might be worth some effort.

If on CD go down to a used record store and buy for next-to-nothing.Then
if a digital file is what you want to end up with simply rip it, and
you'll have the full-quality real CD for backup. An dthe cassette if
thing really get desperate !

Then use you time and effort on the xfers for what isn't on CD .
