• Oh wow, I definitely understand the appeal but is that right, over half an hour each disc? I’ve got several hundred in the loft, I would never have the patience. Must be great rediscovering all the old gems, mind.

  • I bought a job lot. I guess I've ripped over a thousand by now. I don't think there's ever been a better time to put together a cd collection :)

    When I say 40 hours that was my guess at the time I spent at my desk, I did manage to get some other stuff done at the same time (like reading this forum!).

    I'm very deep into a recorded music phase at the moment. Sometimes I do more music production but the last few years have been about discovering new music.

  • Ripping my cds takes less than 5 minutes per album at 320 kbps, I can no longer hear the difference at higher quality.

  • I ripped all my CD's to FLAC years ago. It's not so much about the time to Rip. It's more about the opening / extract CD / put new CD in caddy / close and rip again.

    Also, after ripping you want to error check the rip and do metadata stuff.
