To add a couple of advantages to ripping:It takes less than 5 minutes to rip a CD into MP3 and they automatically get organized by artists, album, etc. so your excuse it would take too long doesn't hold much water.
I could imagine what your reason is and if it's what I think it is then it's a sad excuse to borderline ignorance.
1. Once all my old CD's were ripped to my PC, I could include all my music in my automatic cloud backup. If the house burns down, I've still got all my music.
2. My wife and I have three vehicals between us. Once ripped, all the music can go on USB sticks and is available in all three. It's also available in the little MP3 player I take to the gym
3. My wife still loves her cd's and her 21 Infiniti still has a player. I'm constantly finding her cd's rolling around the car, under the seat etc..usually scratched and frequently no longer playable. No problem though..all backed up on my PC and in the cloud. I can even burn her a new CD if she wants.
