    Dude, you can do it fairly easily yourself if you have a desktop pc, and a record player / turntable and mixer.

    Get lead that has two phono plugs to line in (looks like headphone plug). Hook up mixer to pc via line in (line in socket should be next to headphone and mic inputs on pc), set vinyl to below 0 decibals (so no distortion on your recording, use mixer volume).

    Next download a copy of music match jukebox player(http://oldapps.com/MusicMatch_Jukebox.htm), go into options, set source as line in, now you'll hear your vinyl playing over the pc speakers if set up properly. Hit record, set your file name and location, hit play on the vinyl and there it is, press stop on pc when mp3 recording is finished.

    Couple of years back, when I switched from vinyl to cd djing, i put LOADS of vinyl onto cd over the years using the above method on an old pc desktop I have. The cds still play perfectly!

    www.audacity.com is also a good program for doing that.

    However if it were me I'd just use ares or soulseek and download them - a lot easier. And really if you own the Vinyl already I don't see the legal/moral issues in downloading a song you've already paid for...
