It shouldn't be. Digital audio extraction is a fairly slow process. I don't know the numbers offhand, but I suspect that USB 2.0 should be faster than even the quickest extraction speeds possible from a CD drive. But if you get into the habit of modifying the tags of files that you've just ripped, then you may find it faster and more convenient to rip to a local hard drive. Working in a tagging program with local files will be faster than working with the files stored on an external USB drive or a network drive. This is what I do - rip to a local drive, modify and add additional tags, then copy the album folder over to my network server. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35504 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
