Twy,

If you get the correct playback equipment you should also be able to get 
a small box (I forget the name of it, buried here somewhere on the desk) 
to record them onto your computer as mp3s. I use a cassette deck set up 
in this manner to record audio lecture series my mother loans to me -- 
then listen on the iPod. Though not the same sound quality, the essence 
of the recording will be more shareable now and later.

The stereo deck that I got previously from Ralph is set up to my office 
computer so I run iTunes through it into the speakers. Very nice.
