Staring at stack of SACD's...

[Ben Gramain]

... I kind of lost the will to live when faced with 'ripping' (i.e. Dig out to Puter) them in real time.

Is there seriously not a method or a company who will rip DSD's and I dunno, maybe put them in 24/96 or something. Failing that a regular 16/44.1.

No DSD available, limited repertoir, albeit an option for 24/96 downloads

[edit] I misunderstood your quest. You want to convert material that you already own.... Haven't seen anything to that extend yet...

CD ripping services cost around $1 +/- $0.25 per CD. SlimDevices offered CD ripping to FLAC and a number of formats in the past. The service is no longer available.

ReadytoPlay is the most popular service that I know of:

http://www.readytoplay.com/

Other services I am aware of are:

http://www.riptopia.com/ - Riptopia

and

http://www.ripdigital.com/ - RipDigital

I would recommend doing a Google search for forum threads or articles to see what people think about the different formats.

As to whether they can do SACD 24/96... eeee. Not sure.

Hope that helps!

I can do it, but not in the digital domain:

Alesis ML-9600 Masterlink

One can also do the same thing one does with vinyl -- rip it to a computer with an external soundcard.

Regular CD ripping services dont cater for DSD data which is why I was asking. Maybe I wasn't 100% clear so I'll just put it in more detail. I have a stack of SACD-only discs which I can downconvert (in the digital domain) to 16/44.1 CD if I so wished on my current SACD player. But this takes place in real time. It's just a colossal hassle to record it to a PC. So I was wondering if there was a service that did this for me.
