Im wanting something to transfer old tapes to cd's -that isnt so expensive but still good sound

get a ''tape2pc'' made by*ion. you can transfer into a computer or it transfers tape to a new tape. its very high quality.once you put your cassettes into a pc laptop you can burn them onto cds too.

Hi! Can you use this to record music onto a cassette from a computer i.e. via the microphone jack into the computer's speaker jack?

Not sure. I think there's a 1/8" mic line in. You could likely finagle that somehow. It's primarily a table top mono recorder, though. It's definitely not hi-fi.

Why is this cassette recorder so expensive? Is it a professional quality "news reporter" machine?

The one I have listed is a little over $18. Not too bad compared to the brand new in box one priced at 199.99.

Can it work solely on the batteries without the Dc in 6v power plug?

Hi Camila hernandez, Yes, it will work with batteries only. You may refer to 3 of this link for more information: https://docs.sony.com/release//TCM929.PDF ~Ralph
