How long would it take you to rip your whole Cd Collection?

And tazo I picked up the new deftones and staind album for a total of $20 from best buy. That's including tax, so I don't really see where your statement of "one CD for $20" comes from.

I chose to also but not because it would take all that much time but since my car and my DVD changer and everything else only play MP3s and Wavs.

I have over 500 CD's so it would take a long time. A really long time. Lots of music from the early 80's and 90's.

Anyone have any reall good techno mixes? PM me if you do.

I hear that - Apple needs to push AAC into other compainies products, whilst still showing the iPod to be the premiere portable option for your future AAC collection.

The myth of the $20 CD is as common among anti-CD snobs as the myth of unstable Mac OS's is among anti-Apple snobs.

I don't want to get into whether or not the music industry is ripping us off, but the $12-$15 CD is still a pretty good buy, especially for the really good ones. I've gotten nearly 20 year's enjoyment out of some of my CD's, and see that as well worth $15.

No matter how long it takes, getting those collections onto iTunes is a wonderful thing.

I see people ripping tracks and all into AAC but how do you deal with ID3 type tags?

I have live versions of songs and if i used soley AAC it would try to override the studio versions because it won't allow me to type and recognise the word "Live" in the title!
