Those of you that already have a DDAR an probably help with this one.

I want to rip a good proportion of my 300+ CD's, 200+ Albums and some tapes
to MP3 or WMA, if memory serves the DDAR is capable of receiving both
formats, but here is the burning questions, if I rip the music (CD's
anyway)
using Windows Media Player to WMA the file tags all seem to be correct and
things are shown as they should be for the track/artist/album/genre info
which is great and the file is smaller, the downside being the licence and
I
am not so sure about quality on non-MS product have you had experience of
this?

If I rip the CD's using Audio Catalyst, which is good and has a CDDB hook
up
for info, then all the track info is on a single line and this does not set
the ID tags correctly, total pain :o( Imagine having to type out all this
info! Is there something I'm missing here, or have you found an easier way
of doing this?

I just went and got a 40G drive solely for MP3 storage and I do not want to
start typing out track info for that many albums if there is any way I can
avoid it.

Any pointers appreciated.

Ta

K.
