the midiman audiophile 2496 can be purchased on ebay right now for under $200. when i bought mine, i payed closer to 450. :(
the same company makes both the lp ripper and recorder. here's their website.

as for the "mp3 to cd" program, any one will do, i'm sure. i like the one i use, as it has some neat features like cd text and stuff.
please don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions. just be warned: the audiophile 2496 is a bit daunting to set up initially, as it's intended for professional musicians and has lots of functions that many of us will never need. once you read the manual, though, it gets easier.
the "lp" program duo is the polar opposite, however. they have simple learning curve and omit all useless functions.
