wow  I want al of the audio, but please instead of mp3 please convert them to flac   convetig to mp3 makes it impossible to do further processing such as noise reduction int he most effective manner. record them to flac and they will be lossless, cause you never know if those tapes will play a second time after all those years. you would be amazed at what youc an get out of old recordings with the right equipment and software. in fact, I suggest that for the historic stuff you actually send the reels to deep sky audio and let them do it. you will get it back on css and they keep copies forever, so f the discs get trashed you can request emplacements. they hav restored audio that was completely unlistenable to audio that sounds incredible., and their prices are rather reasonable for the service they provide.
