I have used a Tascam 424 mkII before. Great recording device, but you need extra equipment to master and create media.

For the cheapest and easiest way to get your music recorded and distributed look to PC recording. I am a fan of SONAR, but have heard other similar products are just as good. A quality PC, good sound card (one that has instrument inputs), and a good studio program are all you need besides instruments and talent.
PC programs have an ease-of-use advantage over hard disk recorders because they allow you to visualize the audio data.
I even use a cheap-ass behringer mixer and use the tape-out directly to my standard integrated sound card and am able to get decent quality stuff. It's not stuff that's necessarily up to quality standards for distribution but I can get the sound pretty clean.
