CD Ripping Services Compared

RX8 writes "Designtechnica compares a number of CD ripping services and talks about the differences in services, price and which formats they will rip your music to. The guide compares 6 different services, all of which are somewhat different in what they do. Ripping services are gaining in popularity because they make it so easy to convert (a.k.a. rip) your entire collection into MP3 files for your portable media device."

    Hmmm... why pay a hooker for a handjob when you can just jerk off for free?

      I think the paradigm here is that you'd mail your member off to the service, they'd jerk it for you at their location (within 7-10 business days) and then mail it back to you.

      Of course eventually all these businesses will be outsourced to India, and genital jetlag is not something to be taken lightly.

    "Better yet (and less of a legal gray area), pay your 8-year old nephew $0.25 per disc to rip your music for you."

    Because we all know slashdotters don't get laid enough to have kids.


    Maybe my family tree is wrong - but I don't see where I need to have kids to have a nephew?
