edited April 2007 in Technical Stuff and Help
i've a few cd's to add into my iTunes on my PC and i just did the Beatles - Love album and it took about 25minutes to rip onto my collection...

it used to take a few minutes per cd i think.. now its frickin ages :(

i'm doing it at 160kbps and i've turned off the "error correction" option!!

i cant be arsed doing anymore as it makes my machine run slow at the same time which is flaps

any ideas?
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    ok was just curious if someone had messed with your settings....writing at 2x would be a helluva lot slower than 16x....happened to me once my daughter had gotten ahold of mouse and caused all sorts of mischief....

    It's probably a drive issue, not iTunes.
