To begin, count your CDs and place your order. Arizona Rips will send you empty spindles to hold your entire collection.  A return UPS  label will be sent to you along with the spindles and shipping box. Simply load your CDs , label  side up, onto the spindles, seal the box and ship it, using the label provided. Also, you need to send us a portable hard drive on which to record your music.  Any HD in FAT form or NTFS form will be fine.  I particularly like the Simple Tech  drives because they are so small and easy to ship. Arizona Rips will return your new digital music library on your hard drive, along with your original CDs. Keep them as a back up. It is not legal to have copies of music that you do not own, so it is not wise to dispose of your original CDs. You just don’t need to ever handle them again! You are now ready to enjoy your entire music library, in any order you want, from any CD you want and never have to handle a CD again. Turnaround time depends on the number of CDs you submit.  Realistically, a 1000 CD order takes 48 hours in house .

UPS has proved over time to be the most reliable  shipping method.  The shipping cost is an actual cost based on your zip code.  There are no hidden or extra costs.  There are a total of three trips: empty spindles to you; your CDs to me; your CDs to you along with the data DVDs that hold your entire music collection. Just for your information: 500 CDs weigh 26 pounds. 

Taking this leap  into the digital age of music is so exciting!!! Arizona Rips enables this process and lets you enjoy your own music digitally. It allows you to turn your entire CD collection into a legitimate MP3 library. Remember that your digital music library is yours and yours alone. It is illegal to give your files to another person or to share them over a network. You are responsible for the legal use of your music.

 Your music will be kept for 10 days,  just until I am sure that it has arrived safely and we don’t need to burn the MP3 DVDs again. Then it is deleted from the system. Please note that I will be in contact with you during the entire process. I will let you know when your CDs arrive, when they leave, and what, if any, problems arose during the ripping process.
