I use Flac to archive music in it's original form, most of the CD+

From these I can then convert to any lower rate/lossy version.

Could you share how you converted your SACD and DVDA CDs to FLAC?  I am
a relative newbie and I thought these files were encrypted.  Did you
make an analog to digital copy?  Details would be appreciated.
Thanks

[slim] Recommendations for newbie

[davel]

We are having our small 25X20 kitchen gutted and redone so I thought now
is the perfect time to put streaming music into my house - starting with
the kitchen.  A few questions: is the performance of the wireless SB2
good enough to get this version rather than a wired one?
My other question concerns speakers and an amp.  I was hoping to find
some decent in-wall amplified speakers for around $200 to $300, but I
can only seem to find powered speakers or in-wall speakers, not both. 
Any suggestions?  I was hoping to avoid having to get an amplifier and
I thought I could appease the wife with discrete in-wall speakers.  I
suppose discrete exterior wall mounted speakers might work, but I want
the sound to be decent (but it doesn't have to be great).
