Thanks for your suggestions. The problem seems to be less now. I suspect intermittent drive malfunction, perhaps related to heat buildup in my Thinkpad. We shall see.

iTunes error messages during rip
I purchased iPod mini several days ago and started to "rip" some of my cds to digital using "itunes" software provided by Apple. So far I've done perhaps a dozen cds but two of them have cuts that itunes stubbornly refuses to fully accept. On both the Alicia Keys album and also Springsteens Rising there are several cuts that generate error messages - even when I use the built in "error correction" facility. It this a normal situation? Could it be a problem with the cd reader? itunes? The error message itself is not helpful. Both cds play fine. Thanks, Art
