#TIL that you can rip an audio CD in #KDE just by opening it in dolphin and copying out the folder named for the format you want it in.

These are a set of virtual folders that represent the formats supported by your system to rip them into.

How cool is that?

@gnuplusmatt I was very surprised the first time I saw that, I thought the producer of the CD had added the files in different formats 😕
A really cool thing from KDE, but who still uses audio CDs?

@AurelDel I thought so too, the first one I did today was the newest CD I own (which admittedly was from 2013), and then realised that OPUS is a newer codec than the disc 😆

I am sick of paying Google to stream the same 300-400 songs over and over so I am re-ripping my old CD collection to put into my jellyfin - then will acquire the other tracks I dont own by either hunting down discs or other means
