<div>Question:<br><br>How do you rip an album to disk? I have over 500 of them, most of which I have had since the 1960's when they first came out, but also have a number of 78's and albums from the 30's/40's. I've wanted to put them on disk but don't know how. Any info on that would be appreciated. <br>

<div><span class="e" id="q_1181880695221fef_1"><br>> <br>> I wish I could help you. Just for the curious, how much room does <br>> 17,467 albums take up of physical space? I was going to suggest ripping <br>> them to your computer, but by my calculations (assuming that an album is <br>
