http://www.turntablelab.com/dj_equipment/806/2552/37289.html says:
"plug and play USB connection - no drivers needed!"

That suggests it's basically a  USB audio device class compliant sound 
"card" with an inbuilt phono preampifier, so it should work with Linux.

That site also says:
"ION U-Record USB Audio Interface w/ Audacity Recording Software".

See http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Audacity_Wiki_Home_Page for 
Audacity. Audacity is in the Ubuntu repo's :)

That last site has very much info about digitizing tapes and records. I 
doubt if you need to buy an extra device !

Good luck!
