I will go to complete my question now as so many have been a perfect help here, I'm just about back to being completely into my music except for two major questions, and I need the step-by-step for the first question as I used to have some kind of 'ripping' software that converted my CD's into, mp3's I think, but the format that 'Music' will want so I can add my physical CD's to my library. CD's I have are some 'out of print' and no longer available for sale anywhere, and some are recordings done in Dublin, Ireland of the most talented Irish fiddling and music you could imagine, I have CD's of some of those, but what I need to know is how to 'RIP' or convert these CD's into files I can then add to Music. Some of my CD's, operas and such, come in multiple CD sets I would like to keep attached together somehow, CD 1, CD2, etc.
Second question... forget the second question, the first question is so important I forgot what the second question was. Answer to first question will get me going and going good like I used to have this all set up in iTunes years ago. TIA, Ken
