Why would you even play the CD? Just rip it once to your media center in a lossless format, and then put it back on the shelf and never touch it again unless you suffer a hard drive failure with no backup. On a media center, it is easy to skip to whatever part of the song you want. Plus, if you don't open the CD's jewel case again after that initial rip, then you won't have to worry about the jewel case breaking through mishandling.
- k-mcgrady 9y agoWell yeah but I thought the point of this conversation was comparing the physical media CD to vinyl instead of using a digital version on your computer. Vinyl can be ripped too and most new releases come with a free download.
