Recording vinyl into itunes- Best Method?


I looked at past posts regarding this topic but they didn't fit my situation. I'm looking for the best way to import my vinyl collection into itunes; preferably using the turntable I have now. I tried a xitel 'inport' and Griffin Technologies 'iMic' but both had noise/hum issues. I've considered buying one of usb turntables but not sure that would provide the best fidelity for transfer. My preference would be to find a usb type phono preamp that is extremely quiet and that has some sort of software that is easy to work with that can get the music to itunes without multiple steps of converting and that has album art and album/track listings. Absent the phone preamp, any recommendations on a decent usb turntable and software?

Did you want to upgrade the turntable anyway? I gather you're not happy with the one you have.

There are many outboard phono pre-amps on the market, some with USB. You don't *need* the USB as you already have the equipment to connect to the analog outputs of a phono pre-amp.
Actually, I am quite happy with the turntable I have and have to connect to my iMac via usb to import to it. I am now looking at preamps with usb outputs like the Art V2.
This is a great way on the Mac,
