Ripping CD's: Can you rip CD's without Itunes software?

You mean take a CD and make MP3 files? MILLIONS of programs can do this. Hell Windows Media Player can but I'm not sure if that's your preference. Quintessential Player is my favorite so far, you can download it at quinnware.com. It allows you to rip from 8 kbps to 320 kbps and has a variable encoder as well. I haven't heard of many good DVD rippers that are free.

Depends on what songs you're talking about: a. If you're talking about the songs you bought from itunes store, you need to burn to cds and import them. Blame it on apple's DRM. b. If you're talking about songs you already had (mp3s which you ripped from your own cds, etc), you just drag and drop that folder in to the zune software. No cd burning necessary.

I use iTunes to organize and convert my music to MP3s and then drag and drop the music into my Zen. Although if you are ripping music straight from the CD, use the Creative Media Explorer for that, it's a lot simpler and you can rip it straight from your CD to your Zen

It's definitely compatible with iTunes to some extent. I use iTunes to rip my CD's because iTunes automatically finds the music info. Then I drag and drop onto my sansa. As to the songs bought off iTunes, they are AAC music files so you would have to convert.

Yes you can add your CD's to your IPOD without the internet. You will need ITunes though. If you have the program already, it's very easy. Go into your preferences under "Edit". Hit the tab for Advanced, than within this section, key on the tab for Importing. In this section is where you tell your computer to copy the songs to ITunes. There are 3 drop-down menus you need to change to allow this. Once there you just move them to your IPOD.

An alternative to recording to CD then ripping is to go ahead and download in M4P (iTunes format) then using software such as Sound Taxi to convert to MP3

I usually use windows media player, but you can use anything really. Itunes works and just copying from windows explorer works also. Hope that helps.

For my purposes (to back up elderly LPs), I use CD-RWs (rewritable CDs) in my machine, then transfer them to my computer (into iTunes). Then, I can move them to my iPod, if desired.

I ripped the CDs using Windows Media Player, mostly in .mp3 format, to my "my Music folder". A folder with the CD title was created for each CD with the individual song as a file in that folder. I then copied the CD folder to the SDRAM and the player sorted it out and played the music. It will also accept a USB thumb drive, but the SDRAM takes up less phsical space.

If you go into iTunes preferences, you can have iTunes rip cds into mp3 format. Use that instead.

if the music cd is readen by the unit, you can copy music from the cd to the usb (Only in that way) but it is very basic you can`t choose bit/rate or format... I prefer Itunes or any other ripping program in a computer...

I use regular CD-Rs and they work. Have not tried to rip anything to a computer.

The short answer is 'No'. The turntable does come with software. The software allows you to enter the artist, album, and song titles. The instructions specify that it is set up to export to iTunes. This is the only way I have used it. It appears that iTunes is required for the import, but once the songs are on your hard drive, you can obviously do whatever you want with them.As already pointed out, you can group your songs by album and burn directly to CD from vinyl without the use of iTunes.

Yes. Using a program like Windows Media Player, Media Monkey or iTunes you should be able to rip tracks from a CD to your Sansa Cilp's memory or an on board micro-SD card.
