Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

If you don't want to be shunned by all the cool Mac users.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I am moderately tech savvy in some things. Those things do not include audio and video. I'm still living in a CD world, but I want to start copying my CD collection, which is pretty large. I must have at least 1 percent of the music NoiseDesign has. I have been using iTunes. Does anyone have any suggestions for software to copy and organize the music? I'm using Windows XP, and I'll probably be sticking with MP3s. I have no iPod and I'm not sure I can justify one, since I work at home. (With Christmas coming up, you're welcome to try to convince me.) I do have a cheap MP3 player. I also occasionally put music up on the web.
Also, I have a DVD of a concert that I need to divide up into individual songs to put on MySpace and YouTube. Can anyone suggest a fairly simple program for editing?

Aside from iTunes, you mean? I may be misinterpreting you, but you can use iTunes to rip your CDs and convert them to MP3s, and iTunes will auto-organize for you based on the CD artist (mostly).

I know people recommend Audacity. Haven't used it myself, and don't have a link, sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Audacity just edits audio. What do you have on the DVD, Ginger?

It's video of a concert, so it's audio and video.
Yes, my question really was, "Is there something better than iTunes?" Another part of it is "If you had the opportunity to start your audio collection over, what would you do?"

I was going to suggest Amarok, which I use for MP3 organization, but alas, the Windows version isn't going to be done for some time yet.

Target often has good prices on cables. Not a wide selection, but if they have the cable you want there is a good chance they will have it at a good price.

meara, it's possible that you don't have enough signal strength for the multiple splits, though I think that would give you problems through the box as well as through the Tivo. I use a similar set up, and the only "problem" is that the Tivo only gets channels under a hundred - basic cable, basically - but the reception is fine. Tighten all the connections, if one in the chain is a little loose you can get ghosting.
