There is such a site -
www.recordcollectorsguild.org ....including a forum which discusses vinyl to digital transfers. Many RCG-ers, including myself, use Audacity.

The stuff went into the public domain a long time ago (the same goes for 45s from the early 50s), but the record companies managed to get the law changed to allow them to "reclaim copyright" by issuing commercial CDs (a concept that is directly opposite to the original intent of copyright law; a lot of judges actually seem to think that publishing public-domain information in commercial form somehow makes that information the property of the publisher). Even before the change in the law, lawyers representing the big record companies did a pretty good job of intimidating people who engaged in such trading by convincing them that they were somehow in violation of the law, as if they were trading current material. There used to be a thing called Audiogalaxy, which was similar to the original Napster except that it consisted largely of collectors of old music trading electronic copies, but the people who ran it finally shut it down because they were convinced they were going to get sued. The record companies did the same thing in the 1920s, when radio stations began broadcasting dance music. At any rate, it's a little chancy to trade even very old music in electronic form on the Internet without having to pay somebody. And if you're willing to do that, you might as well go to websites like Musicstack, and pay other collectors who are selling the actual records to one another. Most trading of MP3s now occurs either between individual collectors using something like FTP, or on IRC (Internet Relay Chat), which is still so user unfriendly that the record companies don't seem concerned about it. There are already forums where collectors talk to one another, as on here. Collectors who meet there often begin talking to one another by email and exchanging music that way (or by FTP). I haven't been on one of them for a long time (I've pretty much stopped acquiring new stuff and am concentrated on getting what I have organized and dubbed to CDR), and I don't remember the names of any such websites offhand, but Google searches for the names of old-time artists and/or song titles will usually turn up a couple.
