Tranferring vinyl records to dvd

[squareyes]

Hi all,
have a friend who wants to copy all his old LP's to
DVD, can anyone suggest any sofware that he may use for same?
and what would be the easiest way to go about it, he is very much a
newbie I am trying to convert wholely to Ubuntu, so doing this via
the command line isn't really an option.

I imagine he would need a recording application, (files in would be .wav 
files I imagine).
A converter to CD tracks. New to me too.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
take Care
