As I sit here ripping 1500+ CDs to Flac I cannot help but read your response Phil and think it may be easier to "Hold up my copy of Steely Dan" and talk someone into sending me the .flac file :-)
Over a year ago I ripped everything to 320 MP3s for use on the iphone etc. I really never considered that I would be able to retire the physical media to the basement. After lietening to a Transporter I ordered one and I am sitting here ripping cds I have not touched in years... Some of the music is obscure and I am having to enter data etc. I resist the urge to go download it from Bit Torrent as the stigma of the site keeps me away. It is a shame that you cannot just insert the CD and read the tags only then download the entire library in bulk from somewhere. (just dreaming) I am one of the lucky few with fiber to my home and so far my download speeds average about 35mb which is close to a full DS3 at home :-) The logical choice for record companies is to make the music downloadable in HI-rez to cut the distribution cost and of course rid the world of more plastic. I for one would be happy to buy hi-rez online instead of Redbook over the counter. I hate hearing good music and not being able to find it anywhere. Oh well back to the grind... only 1100ish more to go!!!
