High Quality Archival
We use industry leading CD drives for our conversion on custom built CD Archiving rigs to ensure the highest quality conversion. We usually use Plextor or Sony drives. This ensures we capture as much of the data as we possibly can. If a particularly scratched or damaged CD is found, we can often recover music that normal CD ripping services cannot.
Lossless Storage
- Probably the best digital music storage format
Apple Environment
- Great for those within the Apple area
Storage tight?
- Ideal for compatability with the widest range of devices
Metadata and Coverart
Each track will include CD Artwork (where possible), with id3 tagging of Artist, Song title, Album Title, Album Artist, Genre and Year so you can quickly search and find your favourite tunes, and build custom playlists.
Each CD and track are individually tagged using licensed MetaData providers for high accuracy of tagging and album art.
