The time has finally come where I am able to put together a collection of music the right way. I just don't know what that is. Just so you know where I am coming from, I am a purist. I don't want any downloaded 128k mp3 files. My goal is to start from brand new or verifiable unscratched cd and first create a lossless file. I will then make a copy at a high rate mp3 (192k+). The lossless will be used for my home system and the mp3 for on the go stuff. I do not care about how much space all this will take, a couple of 1T hard drives will take care of that. What I want to know is the following:

what is the best cd reader (does it really matter)
what is the best lossless format (i am thinking flac)
what is the best software to rip with (i have used eac)
any other advice you think would help
