Totally cool and maybe a way to help boost those lagging CD sales.
In the UK a deal has already been signed in which a company called Ripfactory will soon have in CD rippers (kiosks) in CD stores, thus allowing you purchase a CD load it into the ripper and put it onto your iPod before you even walk out of the store.
The kiosk will load up to 4 CD’s at a time and uses a touch screen. Along with transferring the music to your iPod you can also transfer cover art and the standard meta tags listing the tracks and album titles.
The kiosks will transfer DVD’s as well.
The transfer can be made to the iPod, MP3 players or to your awesome iPhone/mobile phone.
“Once you’ve bought your CDs over the counter you just pop them into the kiosk in the shop, plug in your iPod or MP3 player, and it will transfer all the content then and there, within a matter of a few minutes,” said Patrick McGrath Ripfactory’s managing director.
