I agree to some extent. I ripped my 800 CD's twice before I knew much about FLAC. The first time was done at 160kbs CBR using MusicMatch (it was my first real experience with MP3 and I actually thought it sounded good.) Around the time I purchased my first SLIMP3 I discovered EAC and LAME so I reripped everything. While I love my LAME MP3's, I have to admit if I could do it over I would probably try and find a way to rip them to FLAC and then have separate storage to maintain a copy in the MP3 format as well (for quick transfers to my iPod and other conveniences.) The last times I ripped my collection it took most of my spare time for about a month. Now I have a kid which means I no longer can devote that kind of time. I thought about slowly ripping it again but even at 10 CD's a week it would take a year and a half. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
