I’m not a technology geek, I can’t begin to comprehend how it works but I LOVE using it. The technology we have out today is amazing. One of the things my friends and I have talked about is how to rip all those CDs we own in to MP3s. To sit around to do one by one is a ridiculous amount of time and I can think of better ways to spend my days. Currently, there is a service available where you can send your CDs to them and they will rip each CD for $1. We were considering doing this but when we realized how many CDs we have, that price is just too high. We could go on a vacation to Hawaii for that price!
So, today while surfing the net, I came across this great new service from Primera Technology called the Bravo Rental Program for personal CD ripping. They have a machine that can hold 20 CDs at a time and rip them all for you. Then put in another 20 and keep moving about your day. Previously these units were only available for sale but now they are offering rentals for $299/week. Shipping is paid for both ways. They also mention you must return the unit 20 days after receipt and to allow 10 days for shipping back so you really get a week and a half. I am still trying to figure out how long it takes to rip each CD to figure if I would be able to get all my CDs ripped in that amount of time.
I’m seriously considering this and might see if another couple wants to go in on it for half time to split the cost. We could then sell our CDs to a used music store and recoup some of the costs! Sounds like a plan to me. Then, maybe I can take that vacation to Hawaii! 🙂
Has anyone used this service before? Would love to hear feedback! If I do end up doing this, I will provide a review and let you know how it went.
