Hi, I have a sizeable collection of tapes from underground bands, and since I love them and I want to archive them since I'm quite fearful of the tapes being damaged in any way possible.

I have searched for tutorials online, but what is usually the best way to do it, and where do I get the materials to transfer from tape to PC? Is there any audio specialist stores in the PJ/KJ area that sells them at a good price?

so any kind of male to male can be used, is it?

but can I use a radio instead, cause I don't have a walkman anymore at home. And what are some of the best tape decks I can get?
