Thsalmon,
I am in the same boat at you are. I have an Alesis MasterLink and have been archiving my LPs for the past few months. I choose to record at 24/88.2 rather than 24/96 so that I can put a little over 23 minutes on each CD, just enough for one side of most of my LPs. It also sounds better when I down convert to redbook to play in my car.
The latest MasterLlink can write to CD-R/W. So if you want to save some money, you can use those to transfer the hi-res AIFF files to your PC and later burn to DVD-R. Alesis will not erase CD-R/W so you have to do that on a PC. I also have a Sony external DVD burner. My next step is to find a DVD authoring program that will accept 24/88.2 AIFF files. I haven't found one yet. Anyone know of any?
