Transfering CDs to iTunes FLAC. Am I missing....?


I intend to use a Slim Devices Transporter as my new digital source and I want to make sure I'm setting up my digital music files properly. I've started 'importing' all my CDs via iTunes and have the file format import setting set to FLAC and with error correction turned on. Am I on the right track, or am I missing something?

I want to make sure that I'm transferring all my music to my 500gb hard drive in optimal format. I'll likely copy all the files to a second drive as a backup.

I had considered using EAC, but so far this iTunes process of importing is so easy and user-friendly, and iTunes seems like a good interface for organizing too.

Anyways, any advice from folks who've gone down this path is much appreciated. Thanks,
John

You can also use Dbpower amp to rip files in Apple lossles and still use itunes as a music manager. And FWIW Db poweramp is a better ripper than itunes. Using DB allows one to use accurip checking and allows for secure and ultra secure rips, none of these features are available in itunes.
