A digital dilemma
Posted on April 16th, 2009 by NickCDJ
This photo doesn’t really do it justice…
It shows part of my CD collection that I need to digitise.
Those shelves stand about 4ft tall and are stacked 2 CD piles deep. Anyone else out there digitised a collection like this? Any tools anyone can recommend – hardware or software?
At present it is many many hours in front of Windows Media Player, ripping and then manually entering and editing the meta data as it is normally all wrong or non existent for this type of dance music…

I’ve got a similar size collection.
I tend to do a couple of things. Firstly dont digitise everything! You’re bound to have some crap and is you havn’t listened to some of the tracks in a while be brutal with yourself.
I only digitise the tracks I know I’ll be playing out with.
Also the Media Player CD database is not as good as the ITunes\Sony one which licences the Gracenote CDDB which was the standard in the early days of the interweb. So I tend to use Itunes for burning.
