    Anyone Ripping With WM9?

    Hi gang, just wanted to see if anyone here was ripping CDs to mp3 using Windows Media Player v9? If so what are your feelings about the quality of the mp3s at best quality - 192 kbps?

    [LEGAL STUFF]Disclaimer: all CDs I refer to are ones that I have legally purchased, and the resultant mp3 files are for my singular use only and will not be distributed in any fashion.[/LEGAL STUFF] :yesnod:

      Oops, an "ahem" minor correction. That's WMA files, not mp3s. :??

          I'm using WMA9 to burn and copy my discs for my car. Although I haven't got "audiophile" ears. I would say the quality is very good. I am comparing it on my main system against the original. I burn it as audio files and not WMA.

              I only use it at work at 128kbps to listen to all my CD's on random. Not very critical listening especially through the smallish Altec Lansing speakers.

                  Jason, that's sort of what I had in mind. Eventually to have all of my music library on my laptop to use at work via headphones (nothing NEAR as cool as Kev's Coobicle Toobicle system ;x( ), and then to take up to the Orcas Island house and play via a fairly nice PC speaker system that is still TBD (to be determined).

                      Fix-up mp3 files?
                      by storello
                      I already have a very basic mp3 collection on a PC with Windows Media Edition but I'm not happy with the mp3s in their original form. The most annoying trait is the huge volume difference between my very old CDs (as early as 1984) and current CDs. The Media9 player will automatically adjust the volume...

                      wma vs wma lossless
                      by SteveA
                      I have a question or two about wma vs wma lossless encoding. I just set up a new PC. I have a wireless router to use, primarily, for the Squeezebox I just bought.

                      I ripped a CD just to go thru the process (bit of a newbie here) and noticed that the file extension was .wma. Playing...

                      Guide: Ripping DVD-Audio Discs (DVD-A) to FLAC in Windows
                      by bnieman
                      Hello Everyone,

                      Jason (aud19) and I have been discussing to most efficient way to rip DVD-Audio discs to your computer in the FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) format.

                      This allows you to store DVD-A songs in high resolution on your computer fully tagged and either listen...

                      What format do you use for CD Audio on PC's? .Wav? .MP3? .AAC? .WMA?
                      by Britchie
                      I am in the process of puting my cd's on a HDD (again...I used MP3 the first time around). Space is not an issue, I have plenty with 200 GB drives under $100 USD.

                      I recently downloaded itunes and was going to use uncompressed .wav files but it seems Apple is pushing there "loseless...

                      A Music Server In The House
                      by David Meek
                      Santa brought me a rather neat present. It's a Roku Labs Soundbridge, model M1001. It's a music server that allows me to stream digital music from the hard drive of my PC to my main sound system. It also lets me stream Internet radio stations too. For what it's worth, I'd never heard of this company...
