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?

Buy a reasonable used laptop with CD/DVD record/play unit built-in. You don't need major computing power to rip and burn music. You can find them for about $200.  I use JRiver Music Center 30 (they're up to 32 now) which I find much easier to use than Windows Media Player. JRiver costs $70. I have about a terabyte of music (931 gB) to choose from and do it from a 12-year-old HP 6300 that I bought for $300.
