We have seen some solutions for people who have old vinyl records lying around but what about old cassettes that many are sure to have stocked up there somewhere. To some people it may not matter since they can download or buy the CD version anyway. But what if you cannot find those old tunes that were only manufactured in cassettes during their prime?

Well worry no more as Ion has come out with another solution. With the Ion USB Cassette Deck, you can also rip the cassette audio into digital format which you can also store in your iPod. All you need is to make use of the bundled software and then you can rip away those old tunes from that old cassette tape.

The Ion USB Cassette Deck is available over at ThinkGeek for $129.99.
