Thanks for the info. This helps clear some things up. I've been reading up on this stuff for only a couple of weeks. So, it can get confusing.
I haven't even received the Mac Mini yet (everything is delivered tomorrow) but I want to soak in as much info as I can get before I get too deep in the process of ripping. I don't want to spend hours ripping my CDs into a deadend solution. If that can be avoided -- who knows maybe it cant. FLAK could be a deadend solution, for all I know. I do know that in most things, you learn a great deal in the beginning of a new process and decisions that are made up front are often made in ignorance of the real world situation. Of course, I've used iTunes on my PCs and ripped CDs to ALAC using iTunes, but that was all for use on my Ipod not to play music from my computer. I know that I could use one of my old PCs or laptops and just hang an external drive off the thing and do the easy and comfortable method, but I really wanted to have some Mac experience. And, folks say that the Mac is ideally suited for this application. We'll see if that's just the usual Mac bravado or not. I appreciate the answers and the help. I'm sure its not the last time I'll be asking.
