Ripping CDs For Quality Sound


FYI gang, this written largely by a buddy of mine, just became available:

I got through the first page of the sample before I disagreed with one assertion that Apple Lossless files won't or may not hold embedded artwork when transferred and the recommendation to use AIFF when in fact everything I have previously read and my own personal experience is exactly the opposite. My own library is AIFF.

Then there are the bullet points in section two about using orange, aqua, or purple markers around the end of CDs. Exit stage left for me.
Only complaint I have with dbpoweramp is that the album covers that are displayed on my iPad during playback on my Bryston BPA-1/BDA-1 combo are not the ones I selected in dbpoweramp during ripping. Other than that, I think it's great software.
Rockyboy, I had the same problem till I did the following.
With dbpoweramp if you are choosing different cover art than they auto picked you have to delete all other art so there is only 1 picture you picked. It looks like only the 1st picture is saved.
