I hear this same question all the time and have trouble seeing the hangup. I dont have a server so maybe theres more to it than I know. But my plan would be to setup the server; and then when I want to listen to a CD, fetch it from the rack (just as I have for years) but instead of putting it in a CDP, I would be putting it in the server - for the last time. I dont know, maybe we dont want to be reminded of how many CDs weve purchased but dont listen to.
Is there a service to install CDs in a Server?
I've been toying with the idea of getting a server to store all of my CDs - they're overflowing the boundaries of every shelf in my family room. I've been looking at the Music Vaults and a couple of others. The big stumbling block is that the thought of having to sit there and rip 1000 cds just sounds like a real PITA. Anyone have any positive solutions to this dilemma?
