What percentage of your CDs do you have encoded?

[Amorphus]

any good programs for encoding to a lossless format? I havent looked into this for a long time...

very long... ugh.

None. About 90% of the time I only listen to CD's while I'm driving. I make a backup copy, put the CD-R in my car and let it take the abuse and put the original in my CD tower. Any other time I listen to any of my CD's I grab the original.

 

[spidey]

~60%.

100% Then again, I only own 2 CDs 🙂

800 so far in FLAC format, so about 66%. I've done all the pop and half the celtic, still need to rip my blues, jazz, and classical.

True CD quality in the jukebox is sweet if you can afford the 300 MB per CD of disk space 🙂

Any ripping program that supports an external compressor (EAC, EZ-CDDA) should be able to do it - then just install FLAC or APE codecs and you're off. 🙂

Oh, and WMA is teh devil.

Probably about 50% of my entire collection. 100% of the ones I like.

Haven't listened to my "purchased cds" in several years.

I only encode something when I decide I want to listen to it on my computer. I do, however, make a cd-r backup of any cd I take into the car (I actually take the cd-r into the car and leave the original in the house). Quite frankly, the car is the only place I handle cds anymore as I really don't listen to so much music at the computer.

To be honest, I have never ever purchased a CD. I hopped on the file trading train early on 🙂

However I have ripped many CDs for friends or similar.

yup, lame vbr archival quality

 

[flxnimprtmscl]

Eh, about 10% or so if that.

 

[Evadman]

100%

 

[pennylane]

95+%. I think I need to recode though. It's only alt preset standard (and q6 ogg vorbis). I want a BIG hard drive so I can go FLAC or APES... but I should probably just settle for archival quality.

All of them.... that way I dont need to take my CDs out of my car.
