You can buy some software for your computer called polderbits. Try www.polderbits.com. I bought mine for $14 a few years ago and it really works great.

Actually you don't really need special software, an easy windows tool like soundrecorder (in the accessories - Entertainment start menu folder) does the job! (up to 1 minute of sound though.. if you want a longer time: see below)
All you have to do is plug the output of the music cassette player to the Line In of your sound card (back of the pc), choose the right audio channel for recording (Volume Control --> Menu Options, Properties, Select Recording, Press OK, enable the Line In tick box).
Then start soundrecorder, press play on the cassette player and the red round button in sound recorder.
If you want more than 60 seconds of recorded sounds, just record some 5 seconds, press stop, Choose Effects,Decrease speed several times until the total Length is at least equal to the length of the song you want to record. Press the back arrows to start at the beginning of the file, and re-start recording from the cassette player as explained above! Enjoy :)

why don't you just download them from Limewire or the like? Save all the plugging and unplugging. You can download practically anything from Limewire so chances are that the music on your cassette can be downloaded from Limewire. Unless you have like personal recordings or something. In that case, get those million and one cables and get connecting!

You can plug your casset players line out or headphone jack into a line in port and record like that or you could just play from speakers to microphone but the quality is worse

very time consuming - i did it once. your computer needs a/v in jacks or a microphone in jack as well as a program that will record the sounds that are coming in and able to save them as audio files(ie wav or mp3)
