I know that a lot of people who have already transferred many of the 
vinyl only music to digital.  Considering your music collection, I'm 
sure you could arrange for swaps to get them, rather than having to 
do the transfer yourself.

Btw, the process is a definitely good way of pruning your collection. 
It's amazing how many records I learned that I could live without, 
when deciding which ones I wanted to put on CD.  Or that I simply was 
interested in a couple of the songs from an album.
