Not sure what the OP's background is, but if you have a trusted collection of lots of CD's, why would he PAY for streaming what he already owns! So naturally, you rip the CDs. No internet and bandwidth to worry about, no fees to pay for streaming (last I heard none of the recommended streaming services stream high quality files free).
Ripping CDs
I would like to be able to rip CDs. My streamer, Cambridge CXNv2 doesn’t have that capacity. although it can store CDs. What do I need to rip CDs?
