ripped CDs to FLAC format and copied them across to the SD card...a SanDisk ultra plus SDXC 64gb 150mb/s.

Thanks Col and Neil...Good suggestion re the SD card rather than a USB C stick👍

Album cover artwork appears on the pcm and track listing seem to be in order as well
I may have missed this in all the preceding posts... What software did you use to rip to FLAC out of curiosity?

On a Mac I use XLD for ripping/converting and Tag Editor for tag editing.

Many thanks for the info for Apps for a Mac.

I now only have a very old Windows Laptop with a CD/DVD drive which I have been using for ripping the few CD’s we seem to buy now a days.

Neither our iMac or Macbook have an Optical Drive so I have been looking at some mobile Optical Drives, manufacturers that I have never heard of seem to populate the searches.

Any suggestions on make?

Ideally a CD and DVD Combo.

Cheers

I've always used the Apple external drive. Been using for years and it's outlived a few iMacs and MacBooks
