I have never shipped anything C.O.D. before. I know nothing of it and I am curious as to how safe it is between the sender and the receiver. What are they inherent risks and benefits? Any and all help would be appreciated.

I am going to be re-ripping a lot of my cd's and I am curious as to if I should use LAME or the Fraunhofer codec. I am looking at ripping my cd's at a minimum of 256 kbps to a Sony Vaio pocket MP3 player. Also is VBR better then just an even rip at one level of MP3? In the past I have...

I say buck up and get ther 40 gig Sony Pocket Viao. 200 bucks and you shouldn't need to worry about storage for a long time.

What is the difference between the E5's and the E5c's?

I am not a huge audiophile when it comes to headphones so I hope you guys might be able to answer my questions. I have the Shure E3c's and I was curious if it worth my time to upgrade to the E4c's. I should also mention that I use these for an iPod. I know that iPods are not the greatest...
