Only I'm about 1/3 of the way through and now the ripping process is taking
f-o-r-e-v-e-r... When I first started each song would rip in just a few
seconds now it might take up to a minute or two per track. I am ripping them
at 64kbps in wma format. Would it help if I don't save them to my the media
library and just save them to my music folder. I bought a iriver IFP-899
that I am absolutely happy with and even at 64kbps the songs sound great!
Any ideas or suggestions. I by the way my cd collections consists of almost
500 cds!
Thanks for any and all feedback.

That would help. Remember, WMP has to go out and get the info, import it and
rip all at the sametime.

You could also try ripping to an alternate emty folder as a test. Large
numbers of files in a single folder have always given Windows (all vers)
problems and caused slowdowns.
