I’d recommend Asterisk at home as a PBX, there are lots of advantages
beyond just call recording.  That might be more than you’re after
however…

Dear LEAPers,

I would like to record telephone interviews I plan to make next Spring. 
I use Ubuntu and I can use Audacity to edit ogg or mp3 files, so editing
is not a problem.  But I do need advice on how to best record telephone
conversations and produce decent quality audio files.  I see three basic
options: 

1) buy a phone which, ideally, would have a built-in recorder directly
producing mp3s I could download to my PC
2) buy a phone with a line-out which I could plug into my mp3/ogg player
(which can record voice and line-in) 
3) find a way to tap into my phoneline with my computer (my least
preferred option)


What is the most cost-effective way to do this?

Many thanks for any pointers!

Andrei
