After ripping 250+ cd's I discovered that my iMac in combination with iTunes is useless for ripping CD's
If you set error checking on and an error is encountered it stops copying!!!
If you don't set error checking is leaves you with a real crappy recording
So I got hold of a copy of MAX from http://sbooth.org/Max/
It worked like a charm and I am now in the process of re-copying all my CD's
I have noticed that cd's copied with MAX actually sound better, so I guess some bits were dropped somewhere along the line after I had turned off error checking.
Having been in computers for over 30 years - the iMac is the first machine that has ever failed to copy data from CD's and DVD's.
I guess it's sorta good for kids stuff and browsing the web, but I wouldn't trust my General Ledger on one - no telling how fast it could bankrupt me!
Also bought an apple TV and had all sorts of streaming problems with it - apple will not admit to problems and tell me to power the unit down - WALOC
Turns out Apple support is about as good as their computers.
