Hi I would like to copy my cd collection onto a USB memory stick.
Can anybody tell me the easiest and quickest way to do this?

Have you got your CD collection on your PC, if so you just drag and drop.

If not , you will need something like Audiograbber to copy your collection onto to your PC. This will take a fair while, if you have as many CDs as I did.

You can also download itunes for free and do the same.
It takes about 60 to 90 seconds to download each CD (dependant on your broadband speed)

If you have a DVD/CD drive you can copy from disc to PC. Sort and then copy to USB as you would any file or folder. A little more involved if you want "song playing" etc showing on radio.

Why not rip them using Windows Media Player to MP3 format, then you'll be able to get a lot more onto your usb stick. Bit more time consuming but a cd copied directly would be a big file.

I copied mine to the PC as well using Windows Media Player. This meant that I could chose the minimum compression I wanted so not to loose to much. The pc route also meant I could sort and rename folders using windows explorer eg by the artists name, and group more than one cd into the folder. This made it easier for playing as the "select" functions on the radio are more limited that say an Ipod. I use 5 memory sticks.

I bought a Brennan. It takes over a 1000 cd's, and takes the title of the cd to index. Once your several thousand cd's are on, (30 cd's on mine Embarassed ) it will send a list to a text file on a USB stick to print off and\or sort.

I am not an expert and it obviously depends on what you want to copy all your cd's for. i.e. back up, to listen to, to make individual cd's of your own.

Brennan reads all formats and changes them into MP3 on the fly if chosen.

Good bit of kit. High quality and search for Brennan on Google if it is of interest....

Hi Pusser, I also have a Brennan and it gets my vote for home use. However, I have all my CDs on it at full size to maintain the quality so didn't use it to copy them to a USB. Interesting idea for transfer of MP3s. It runs on 24v so could be a possible for MH use.
