Pastimes : CD Burners Emporium -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Hi Ally, I could sell you the one I bought my husband for Christmas. <men..> It was not the kind he wanted, so here it sits unopened. I have tried unsuccessfully to convince him to use it, but he has his heart set on one made by a company called Dupe-it. That type of burner does not require the computer to transfer songs. Since most of what he wants to do is off of CD's we already own, he was not concerned about being able to down load the music. The system he wants has some pretty cool features. He also had a point that in our house, he did not want to have to compete with me for computer time...guess I have to respect him for that. (I did suggest we just get another computer for his CD writing efforts.) dupeit.com Jane

Ally, Welcome to the thread. I don't know the full range of options, but I am very happy with the setup I have. Basically, rather than trying to get my old (3 years old, 233 MhZ Compaq) PC to accommodate a burner added on to it, I just bought a new PC about 4 months back....it came with all necessary software to convert CD's into MP3's (and does it quickly)....and it also has a very nice CD copying feature (put the CD to be copied in the CD/DVD tray and a blank one in the CD RW tray, push a button on the software....go eat dinner.....and 15 minutes or so later you have a duplicate....... If you like ease and simplicity of use I would recommend going the new PC route.... Any music recommendations for us today?
