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.

If you have an Oppo or similar player a simple method is to rip the CDs to a portable hard disk using a program like "Exact Audio Copy.". They can easily be played them through an Oppo via USB directly and controlled from your phone.

Or you can use a lap-top to play them through any DAC that has a USB input. If it doesn’t have USB you can use a USB to spdif converter. If you use a program like JRiver you can rip them even more conveniently and also control from your phone.
