Converting cd's to high resolution audio


All my music is on cd's and my reading tells me that the cd itself has a limited shelf life and will degrade over time.
Any recommendations about converting my cd's to FLAC or some type of high quality music files. Not looking for
compressed files.
I see products such as the Blue Sound Music Vault and a Sony High Resolution Music Player.
Does anybody have any thoughts about how to accomplish this goal?

Thank you.

I have ripped my cd’s to a HDD. I do not think any more resolution has been gained by this, but since the HDD is in another room, it seems the background is quieter and the sound better. No spinning disc or other sounds to hear.
Is it in my head? don’t know but ripped files sound better to me.
