Time to get ripping.......
« on: April 26, 2020, 10:52:35 PM »
Ripping my CDs onto a hard drive has always been one of those thing I kept saying I would get around to someday when I had the free time........

Well with this Covid lockdown going on I find myself having nothing but free time lately. So I have been putting some of it to good use filling up my hard drive with music. I have done close to 1000 discs since the lockdown started. It gives me something to occupy my time and I have to say it is nice to be able to pick from such a wide range of music without ever having to get my lazy @ss of the couch to even change the disc, never mind go down to the basement to gather and then refile discs to play.

Give it a try while you still can. Hopefully this Covid thing will resolve itself soon and we will never have this much forced free time again.
Remember, it's all about the music........
