Just a quick note for everybody who is concerned about all these CD's being copy protected; I have the perfect system. It's called Windows 3.11

Just run CD player at the same time as sound recorder, and it will convert the audio tracks into .wav files. Then transfer those wav files to your main computer and convert them into MP3's or whatever format you like.

You'd be surprised how fast a Pentium III PC boots up with Windows 3.11
