    Ripping CDs is using windows media player set to maintain the highest or equal quality.
    For the LP's I am using a Behringer UCA202 Analog to digital converter set to its fastest conversion rate and highest voltage resolution. It outputs to and is powered by a USB port. Windows has a good program called Sound Recorder, that also has settings that allow non-compression, to store the digital media in the format you choose. I read up on all these settings and did several sound tests to finally the ones that reproduce the best sound out of the equipment I have. This allows me to use my Ortofon MC20 fineline stylus cartridge and turntable and my NAD preamp for the RIAA equalization.
    There are "all in one" turntables out there that output in USB digital, but I have been unimpressed and have no desire to damage my vinyl with lesser equipment.

    People don't understand why we don't loan vinyl LPs but will loan CDs.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.
