Well, after extensive research I finally found an excellent program to rip cds for Mac (since, unfortunately, EAC is Windows only) called
XLD. Like EAC it's very accurate but sloooow.
Now I'm starting the huge undertaking of archiving my cd collection.
I'm ripping to .aiff @16/44 uncompressed. It seems to have all the metadata that one needs for info/artwork. I've even finally loaded some music on my iTouch via iTunes (it's at least good for
that!). Gonna be very cool for a road trip!
This archiving endeavor should keep me busy for a long while.
I appreciate all the suggestions Axiomites... keep 'em coming!
I like the high end servers a
lot, but I'm wondering if it's better (cheaper too) to concentrate on the software that will play/organize the music and put the money into a nice D/A converter for two channel playback.
Gonna get interesting when I digitize my vinyl at 24/192!
