    How old is your PC? It would need a CD drive and space on your hard drive. Download iTunes (free), set up MP3 ripping under one of the tabs at least 192 Kbps/44 kHz and try it. My computer is five years old, but I did swap out the hard drives and add a USB 2.0 card which I think is essential. I use MediaMonkey for synching tunes to my players which are Creative/Dell's. You can use your PC to play the tunes and FM transmit them to your stereo. (WholeHouseFMTransmitter.com) or I'm thinking of plugging my laptop directly into my receiver inputs and letting my wireless network do the work. I haven't tried any lossless formats, but I have done digital recording at CD quality and compressed them for portable players.

    wow! thanks......gotta get 1 of my friends that knows all that stuff and some beer and let em loose!

    A lot of times, I'll buy a CD and not like it, only to give it a listen months or years later and begin to like it.

    Oh, good -- I'm glad I'm not alone.

    I have purchased a few CDs, sold them, then bought them again a year later and wondered why the hell I sold them in the first place.

    Weird.

    I always give a cd a listen at least three times before I sell it off. Incubus Make Yourself is a perfect example, first listen through I thought it was decent with a few good songs. Second time through same thing, decent, only a couple good songs. Let it sit in a cd binder for ~3 months, listened again and loved it. Then again tastes do changes, cds I bought five years ago and thought were great now I think are just awful.
