Time for thrift store shopping Moth3r ..... that would be my suggestion if you either can't fix it or it costs too much to have it repaired elsewhere. I have a nice TEAC A-106 that I got at a thrift store for like $4.99. $80.00 later it runs like a champ and was well worth the trip to the repair shop.
You're making mp3's? ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww..... LOL
