My 25 disc CD changer has a optical digital output, as do many other standalone cd players. Currently my soundcard does not have optical digital in, but next go around I'd get something similar to Creative Lab's Audigy Platium. It is the newer version of the Live series. The "live drive" puts some easy access ports on the front of your PC, two being optical digital in and out.
By doing this you can only rip in real time. However there should not be any data loss, because it doesn't go analog and back.
Too bad that idea has been around since the 70's. Read Cyberpunk's third chapter on RTM (Robert Tappan Morris), or follow this link I just found: http://www.info-sec.com/viruses/99/viruses_061599a _j.shtml .
I think it will take longer than 28 days to fix their bugs :)

Yes, a pc does emit RF (Radio Frequency) Noise, but the signals that he is looking at are nowhere near that set of frequencies.
