I'll settle for optical line out on the cd player to the optical line in on my front-panel SB Audigy. What do I care if it takes real-time to rip, I'll just do one ever night before I go to bed or something. And as for track names, the holy Tag&Rename will get them for me without a second thought!

Well, that, or just buy folk CD's direct from the artists at the shows. Hell, they just burn them on CDRs, you KNOW there's no copy protex on that.
