[slinkelist] Digital Audio server

[Brian Atkins]

no no no, what Colby has to realize is that with 180GB hard drives now
becoming available, he needs to work on ditching the whole hardware based
CDJ approach (i.e. slink-e and changers). He needs to come up with a way
to auto-rip CDs via changers into WAVs, and modify CDJ to work with those.
I want to get rid of my changers!!! (and I hate MP3 quality) I would gladly
pay for the CDJ software if it could do this.

P.S. I am not sure if it is what you want, but look at shoutcast.com
