Re: Output format tips needed:
You've certainly got enough hard drive space to start with, now I'm doing some very rough calculations here, on average I might get 10 CD'S on a DVD disc using some sort of Lossless format, say FLAC for example, I also said earlier that I use the FLAC and Cue sheet method, that way I can write the audio back to an Exact copy of the original CD using various pieces of software, its just occured to me that you can get a free plugin for Nero to allow it to work with cue/ flac/wave files too. Now going on my very basic calculation of 10 CD'S per DVD, you will be able to easily apply 100 CD'S to 40 gig and have quite a bit of room to spare so you'd get a couple of hundred CD'S at least on a 250 gig drive.

If you're looking to retain exact audio copies of your CD's before selling them then you'll need to use a lossless format. I'd recommend lossless WMA and using windows media player to rip your CD's rather than nero. As you're probably aware, next to MP3, WMA is the most commonly supported format. It's also a proprietary microsoft format and I don't see microsoft going away any day soon so the longevity of the format should be guaranteed over any other. Lossless formats take up around 50 to 75% of the original CDDA equivalent so you'll need a lot of disc space to hold 650 CD's. I've currently got around 700 CD's ripped in lossless format and they're taking up just over 270GB of disc space. You'll also need to back up your hard drive because if you have a hard drive failure, you're going to want to get your music back from your saves. I currently use 3 hard drives, a master and 2 back up drives. WAV files will take up more space than lossless WMA or FLAC files and they don't support ID3 tags so I would disuade

Express Burn
The free Express Burn program CD burner gives me strange numbers for total time used and free time when I load files to burn a CD. For example, it keeps saying 1:19 free time for every CD, and today it said over an hour was used up for some WAV files I set up, when I know it was not close to that. Is this a known bug in this program? I like to use it because it is very speech friendly with great hot keys, but this is a major problem.

The best results you will get, is when your drive is writing the files to CD at its slowest speed.

Your friend above forwarded you this email because they thought that you might be a lot like us - you like to push the limits of what technology can do to improve our lives. I used to run the DAK 1 print catalog and now I’m launching DAK.com. As I used to say in the catalog, I think I’ve got the neatest job in the whole world. I get to play with the newest electronic innovations, usually even before they leave the lab or the factory. My site will take you on a trip through the never never land of new electronic technology. DAK 1 was 4,300,000 strong so we DAKonians could pretty much dictate both the features and prices we wanted from the manufacturers. When I start mailing our list again, we'll have power to spare. But I've already found over 50 great new products. So, we’re trying to round up about 100,000 eDAKonians to get the buying clout we need TODAY. Check out http://www.dak.com and let’s explore the newest electronic technology together. Sincerely, DAK Industries, INC. Drew (Kaplan) President Important privacy protection for you. 1. We are only forwarding this email to you in response to the request of your friend (name and email address listed above). 2. We will not contact you or use your email address again unless you come to http://www.dak.com and sign-up yourself. 3. Most Important. You are protected. DAK.com is anti-spam. To protect you, we will keep your eMail address in our database so that you will not hear from any of your other friends OR FROM US recommending our site address for 6 months.

Re: when burning a cd with nero what is the best bit rate to use
Speed makes no difference in quality in any way. Speed has to do with the quality of the media you're using to burn on, higher quality can handle faster speeds, that's all. It is likely that if you burn at faster than 32X or so, errors are more likely and you'll waste a lot more media than at 16X which I generally use which is slow but always works. Right now I don't have a lot of good media so don't dare try burning on it faster than 16X or I have coasters all over the place. The copy you're making is digital so there is no loss whatsoever.

About back up files:
My external drive is just about full and I want to delete most of the material on it. When I was using, Retrospect, compliment to Maxtor's software, there was a, delete back up files option but now that I'm running the Microsoft program, there isn't. Can I just delete files from the drive? If I do delete the main folders, what if anything do I do about the recycler information and the other files not directly associated with the back up data. I hope this isn't too confusing. I barely know what I'm doing. thanks again.

Re: Some CDEX questions
if you really want the highest quality rips possible, use Exact Audio copy with the Lame extreme preset. With the current version of Lame, variable bit rates with joint stereo deliver the extra fullness and richness when it is needed. EAC does offer a preset for 320 CBR, but the developer calls this setting insane. EAC, unlike CDEX, scans each track, looking for two exactly identical wave forms or the closest exact match possible. It repeatedly scans a tract, dozens of times if needed, before ripping it. CDEX does not perform this error checking analysis. If you want the best rips in town, use EAC. It takes longer to learn, but the rips sound really great. CDEX is easy to use and I still rip audio books with it. For industrial strength music output, I use EAC.

I'd also like to be in a position to change the format if a new one comes along that's enough better to justify it. I plan to use, Nero 7 Ultra Edition and rip to flak but I'm open to all suggestions. also, I've used Roxio products for years but I switched because the latest version of their program was less accessible than Nero. therefore, if anyone has a tutorial or general configuration tips, I'd love to hear them.

When using Nero to make a copy of a cd that you own or have borrowed or whatever when you are selecting your speed for it to burn at witch is the best speed to use? What I mean is when you are setting Nero up to copy the disc and it is an audio cd. When you get to the place where you can select the speed for your drive to burn at like 48 x 32 24 16 witch one is best to select or doesn't it matter? Also is there a loss in the sound of the audio on the copy of the disk that you just made or does using one speed over another give you better sound quality for your copied cd? Just wanting to know cause I am burning a lot of disks today and would like to get it done with the best quality that I can.
