Hi. I am moving overseas for a few year and wanted to rip all my cds onto a hard drive to take with me. The problem is, I have 2 months to do this and over 3000 cds to rip.Was hoping for some advice as to what OS, ripping software and harware would result in the fastest YET ACCURATE rips? Would a linux based computer work better?
One option was to use a program that would automaticaly check the album name/tracks (thus, EAC is out even though it is othewise my favorite) and to rip straight to uncompressed files ... transcoding will probably eat up more of the valuble and limited time I have.
Would be grateful for any advice. Thanks!
