I now know how to save material from cassettes and CDs as Real Media files (.rm), using RealProducer. My questions are the following: 1) Is .rm the best format in which to save materials? I just tried recording a song onto my PC, and the file was quite large (5mb). I don't know too much about other formats, so this may be a very "basic" question. Can someone give me some advice, or give me some Websites I can look at to better my understanding on this topic? 2) I have been recording from a cassette to the computer by connecting a cord from the headphone jack on my boom box to one of the jacks on my computer (probably not the best way, but it works for now). Is there any way to reverse the process (record from the computer back to a tape)? Thanks for your help!
