PC as a transport vs Regular transport or player


For PC, RIP lossessly on the hard drive and USB to Coax/SPDIF to the external DAC...

Which will really be sound better?

what are the pros and cons for using PC as a transport, comparing to the traditional ways such as using CD transport or Universal player as a transport?

Virtually every recording made in the past 3 years was at some point recorded/processed/mixed or mastered on a hard drive type audio system. That covers the horrid sounding pop/rock releases as well as audiophile favs. Properly setup they are the equal of high quality dedicated CD transports.
