2. Can I get equipment which serves my function?

YES.. a reasonable priced laptop computer equipped with the largest and fastest hard drive you can afford, sufficient memory, and CD/[or even better]DVD burner, and appropriate software
will cover every recording requirement you list..
now and well into the future.

This is probably the most cost effective and future proof investment for your money

you can then burn your own Discs or output the recordings to any other medium you have available..
