Many people may have old recordings made in Dolby B or C. However if your expensive Dolby deck breaks down, it may be hard to justify the expense of buying a new Dolby deck.
I don't see why recordings can't be digitised using a cheaper deck, and then decoded in software.
So far I've written a program to decode recordings made in Dolby B. I also intend to implement Dolby C decoding, but I'm still working on that.
My program is written as a Windows command line program, but it can be run quite easily by creating command batch files.

I downloaded this software in August 2015 and have used it with very satisfactory results and no glitches (yet detected) on about 100 hours of classical music recordings, since my ancient cassette deck bit the dust. Thank you very much. I notice the recent modification to standardise the output volume. I haven't tested the new version, nor have I tested any of the extras. I found the peak output of the processed files to be about 55% of the input, and I subsequently modified the processed using the "normalisation" feature of a freeware program called Audiograbber (which I use to process Wav to mp3).
