Will computer to DAC replace transports and cdp's?

From my limited reading it seems that a cd burned to a hard drive will be a bit for bit copy because of the software programs used to rip music files. A transport has to get it right the first time and feed the info to a dac. Wavelength audio has some interesting articles about computer based systems and have made a strong statement that a transport will never be able to compete with a hard drive>dac combo.

Anybody care to share their thoughts?

Sound Quality Question :

Example, $950.00 and I get an Off-Ramp Turbo, get everything set up correctly to my Dac, will it sound "as good or better" than my belt-drive CEC ?
