I'm pretty sure these are music casette tapes, and there
are 13 of them.  Not sure how many cds...probably 13.

Actually I did think it would be possible to record from
a tape player, however I don't have one and I've never
tried to copy an analog source to a digital medium.

I was actually hoping there might be an audiophile on the
list that would be able to do this.
