And see, I would totally hire myself out to rip in people's music all day. iPod setter-upper.
I think there are already people out there doing this, so it's not necessarily an impossible dream.
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

No lie, I kind of want to break into Frank's house and rip all his CDs.

I am pretty sure shrift that we could make that into a party.

I'm definitely in. It took me a couple of months to rip my CD collection to iTunes, but every now and then I'd hit something I hadn't listened to in a while, which was awesome.
I just moved a bunch of vinyl from one shelf to another, which reminded me that I have a ton of stuff there that's unavailable on any of the mp3 stores. Might have to befriend someone with a USB turntable.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Back when I was ripping bunches of stuff for iTunes, I liked to have three computers ripping at the same time.
Also, I originally ripped my stuff at 128 kbps, so around the fall of '03 I re-ripped everything at a higher variable bitrate.

I suggested once before that we buy a communal Buffista one. I totally wasn't joking.

Count me in. I have so much vinyl, and our turntable doesn't even have a needle anymore.

I would be so up for that. Although shipping it around might be a bitch.

it might be, but I bet a fair amount of exchange would happen without needing shipping. I could get it to B'more in person, or down to TX (where at least shipment to Austin would be shorter and cheaper). It could make exchanges at the F2F for sure.
How much does a good one run?
