Cool ... so my new 512Mb 1.2 Ghz Athalon that's sitting here with no real
purpose other than making me feel better about having a reasonably meaty
machine can now do something usefull.
(Actually, I did a bit of ripping with Audiocatalyst on Friday and got read
speeds from the CD of 15x or greater and compression times for a 5 minute
track of 12 seconds! Wicked...)

a recording to CD?

across a network?
