Basics: Ripping

Disk space is still a big deal to me: I am currently at 2TB of (mostly) ALAC files, and just don't have space to store (or even less, back up!) twice that much :/

 

I agree, after having two additional back ups it adds up.

I don't get the argument that lossless compression makes a CPU work harder converting during streaming and thus a slight loss of SQ, when folks are now over sampling to 8X DSD. Now that's making the CPU work harder.

I find far more bloat in Windows 10 to get rid of that makes the CPU work harder than converting FLAC to WAV during the streaming process. In fact it's almost negligible. I don't hear a difference between the two, thus it's FLAC for my preferred storage container.
