There are devices, but you don't really need additional hardware, follow the instructions to find out how to do this for free!
Put simply, you will need to connect your cassette player to your PC soundcard, then play the cassette whilst recording on your PC. A step-by-step guide is available at:
http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/diy
The recording software is the key, there are some free software downloads available at:
http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/downloads.php
I have used ‘Magix Audio Cleaning Lab’ and ‘Audacity’ – Audacity is particularly popular since it is free!
If you record to WAV format, expect file sizes of around 10MB per minute, or 1MB per minute for MP3 (at 128kbps).
Once you have your digital versions of the recording on your PC, simply burn them on to a CD (Nero burning software or similar..). If you use Magix Audio Cleaning, the software will burn an audio CD for you without needing additional software (assuming you have a CD writing drive of course!)
You can also download a free PDF version of the step-by–step guide from the download page mentioned above, the guide is complete with diagrams and screen-shots
Hope this helps
If you really want to buy a device such as the PC cassette player option, visit the accessories section at: http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/diy/accessories.htm

perhaps you could with a dvd recorder if no such device exists for sound only you would just hook up a different audio input and maybee record a fuzzy screen. I remember this guy had a mini disk recorder that was 10 years ago so that is kinda simular I think and I think they even play in regular cd players but there just smaller. Most people do everything on media centers. Tvs radios dvd recorders are soon to be obsolete.

All you need is a Y-adapter, it has rca plugs at one end and a single stereo plug at the other. Just plug it into the Line-In jack on your PC. You can use any sound recording software, and Audacity is a free program you can download here:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/. Once recorded and saved, it can be converted into whatever format you want. It's probably easier to record each side of the cassette as single tracks, and then broken down later. If you need more info...email me at clone17@gmail.com

Yes you need a casette player may be walkman which has a audio out port connect it to audio in port of your sond card by a connector wire (if you don't find sound card than it is onboard. Download Jet audio or Sound forge. Play the casette & start recording than By a software "Blaze Media " convert it to any format you want.
