Help !

I am elderly and live in a small condo .The 1500 CD's I have are pushing me out of house and home.It's to the point where either they go or I do , I prefer me .
I need to know the easiest and least expensive way I could just burn them and toss them.If there is one . Sounds need only be decent , I far prefer LP's anyway .Thanks !

One more suggestion to OP or anybody interested in ripping CDs.

It sounds much better out of SSD rather than HD without spinning jitter.

That is my firsthand experience from direct comparison.


Hard drive is also more prone to failure.

2T SSD can be obtained around 250$.

I agree that Linux is the way to go ONLY if you understand it. Very few people can get into Linux to do anything like assign a disk and create a backup routine. How about using FSCK to look at trouble areas? I ran million $$$ Linux database servers and it's the preferred choice for enterprise applications. As for the common Joe user, Linux is not there yet. If you buy a 3rd party music server, who are you going to take it to to locally to get it worked on? Also, if all you want to do is read bits off a disk/SSD, a Mac is all you need running Roon. Also most music servers want you to use USB which is a flawed interface.
