I have a large CD collection that I would like to transfer to my computer.
What compression format will give me the best audio quality. File size is not that important. Could you please rank the options in terms of sound quality versus file size. I currently own a Power Mac G4 and am using iTunes. I was planning to purchase an iPod. If the best compression format is not compatable with iTunes or the iPod, what would be an alternative to iTunes or the iPod. I am open to switching to Windows if it will allow more options in recording audio. I feel that this will be my most important use of a computer. Thanks
