Your Digital Music Backed Up and Protected.

Save Valuable Time
Ripping 100s of CDs on a home computer can take weeks, even months. Most people do not have the time, patience, or technical knowledge to suffer through such a long, tediuous endeavor. Riptopia processes thousands of CDs a day. This amazing capacity was designed for both speed and accuracy and is unparalleled in the digital music industry. Now you have access to the same professional processing used by record labels, radio stations, and online music sites. You only need to digitize your CD collection once, so do it right. Plus, Riptopia is available in three different service levels: 50 CDs, 100 CDs, and 200 CDs.

Ensure Superior Sound Quality
Riptopia ensures that your new music sounds fantastic by digitizing to higher technical standards then digital music sold online. Riptopia's Nirvana processing system was optimized for used CD collections. Created by experts in the scientific and academic fields, the Nirvana system can resurrect CDs that appear to be unplayable, turning forgotten music into rediscovered gems.

Provide Vital Album Information

Digital players allow a specific song or artist to be found in an instant--provided the album information embedded in the digital song is correct and consistant. Riptopia's CleanTag process embeds accurate music information, including vibrant album art, into the music files to simplify these searches. The process starts with a database of 70 million unique songs in 80 different languages from our partners Gracenote and Muze (The same data partners as Apple Music Store). CleanTag then combines a verification system and a team of musicologists to check the album data for accuracy and completeness. The result is easily searchable music that is accurate--important for rock and pop but critical for classical and jazz.

Back Up Your Digital Music
Riptopia delivers your new digital music library on high density data DVDs. Each DVD can hold up to 100 of your CDs. After uploading your music onto your computer, iPod, phone, or music server, the DVDs can be stored in case your digital player is misplaced or your hard drive crashes. Having the piece of mind that your digital collection is protected is a key reason for having Riptopia's professional service create your digital music archive.

Easy As 1, 2, 3
After placing your order, Amazon will send you everything you need to securely pack your CDs and ship them for processing. The CD Collection Kit includes spindles to hold your CDs along with protective padding and a pre-paid and insured shipping label. Simply load your CDs onto the spindles, seal the box and ship. In a few days Riptopia will return your new digital music library on data DVDs, along with your original CDs. You are now ready to enjoy your perfectly portable, easily sortable digital music library for loading onto your iPod, computer, or music phone.

1 out of 5 stars True Waste of Money   July 21, 2008
David J. Kohler (Southern Oregon)
Okay, so this product is to have your CD's ripped for you, rather than doing it yourself. I can see how this would be useful for those who do not understand the process, but to be honest if you do not understand the process then you are better off not owning an mp3 player. You need to learn the skills for the devices you want to operate.

Now they claim it takes about 7mins to rip a CD. This was true about two or three years ago, but right now a decent modern computer can rip a CD in 3mins easy. You get a SATA CD Drive and life is good.

There are those who talk about their huge CD collection, and how it would take forever to rip it and so on. My CD collection is well over 300 CDs right now, and every one of them is ripped into my computer. Whenever I buy a new CD I immediately rip it, considering I don't really even own a CD player anymore, just my MP3 players (I think I still have a boombox with a CD player). So what if it takes a bit of time to rip the whole collection, I just start it going and watch some TV or read a book, and change out CDs as needed. The modern MP3 ripping software automatically looks up all the album info (sometimes you have to double check it, but not often) and toss in album art and all that crap.

Basically, this service is charging you 99 cents per CD to do something that you can do just fine on your own. Why spend money for this? Heck, you are looking at a time frame of probably two weeks easy to get the CDs copied, rather than just doing it yourself in a day.



1 out of 5 stars Stupidest Thing Ever   January 31, 2008

This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.

It takes (using a fairly up-to-date computer) about 3 minutes to rip a CD to a computer. The programs are free (Windows Media Player/iTunes) and no-brainers to use.

I can't believe Amazon annoyed me with this advertisement, assuming I'm too stupid to know how to rip CDs or that I "want to save time". People do what they want to do - find the time to rip your CDs to the computer. If you "can't find the time" then you're obviously not very interested.

No way in hell I'm going to pay someone 200 dollars to rip 200 of MY CDs that I have to ship myself and risk losing/damaging because of someone else's mistake.

Anyone who uses this service is a fool and deserves to get taken for everything they give these people.



5 out of 5 stars service makes sense to me   January 31, 2008

If you have hundreds of CDs then ripping them at home will take multiple hundreds of minutes. The reviewer who said this didn't make sense obviously has not amassed much of a collection.

This service is for 200 CDs, you think I want to sit in front of a computer for 200 x 7 minutes? That's over 23 hours straight. I'd pay someone do that for me.

Not all of us are penny pinching scousers.

Why on earth would you pay somebody hundreds of dollars to rip your CD's for you? It takes minutes per CD and using CDDB you don't even have to enter the text yourself!

It is possibly the worst idea ever and if you waste money on this, frankly, you have been deservedly robbed.

I am annoyed that Amazon even sent me an email telling me about this fantastic product, and it has wound me up so much I have had to write a review of it.



4 out of 5 stars Initially a Skeptic   January 15, 2008

So the first time I came across Riptopia I thought, my son can do this for me, why pay. Then I thought...I have been asking him to do this for 6 months, as well as wash the car and take out the trash. Bottom line is Riptopia is not a necessity, just as getting my car washed and having someone clean my home isn't a necessity.
And after having my collection done, I realize that my son would have screwed up the information on my classical albums, so there is actually more then meets the eye to this service, and Riptopia got my iPod up and running pretty darn quick.
