Thread Name: Tech: Converting CD collection to MP3
Subject: RE: Tech: Converting CD collection to MP
Good point, Tangledwood, and taken on board. The collection is currently in 'My Music' folder. If it is a compilation album of various artists it goes by album name and if it is a specific artist it goes by artist names. Where I have multiple albums by the same artist there a album title sub-folders. The software I use has, generaly, put the genre, date etc. on it so I can search by that using media player. Is there anything else I should be doing?

Going back to saving the tracks. For the albums I have already ripped, I will re-rip them using media player and save to WAV file so I wil have two copies - three if you cound the orginal CD!

For future ones should I save to WAV and then rip the MP3 from the WAV or should I rip both copies from CD? Any suggestions or preferences?

Cheers

Dave
