Ripping audio from DVD, PCM to AIFF fails on some files
Hey guys, I am using OSex to rip the Ben Folds MySpace DVD into Aiff for playback on my ipod, and it converts fine, however when I use "Aiff from PCM" drag-n-drop some files turn up red and I can't convert in Stereo. Anyone have a solution or workaround for this?- tw0k1ngs

the demise of the CD
The great thing about CD's is that they are digital storage and more than just "music". This means that as time goes on, they get less, and less, and less expensive to produce. Record companies know this, so it will just cost them less and less money to keep producing the same number of albums...- tw0k1ngs

New iMod for the iPod 5G: A Red Wine Audio/ALO Collaboration
