Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: For Best Sound and Convenience Just Rip Them

So much nonsense. Stealing would deprive the owner of the use of the disk. It is a criminal violation. Copying your own disk does not fit that description.

If you must, copying for one's own use of something he "owns" is at most a violation of the copyright license. It is a civil issue, not a criminal one like stealing. I'm not dealing with morality here. As for morality, to each his or her own. Last time I looked no one was ever sued for copying his SACD. I have no problem with copying any disk I own.

Nor does Stereophile evidently, which published the details of exactly how to rip SACDs, and they were late in the game. It had been done before for years.
