    Since I usually buy my CDs at concerts, I usually have 4+ to rip in one go.

    I still need to re-rip Fallujah, Dawn of Ouroboros, Persefone, and Vulvodynia CDs; I ripped them as 320KBPS VBR, and the sound is muddy, with all of the bright edges and crispness gone. Everything that I’ve ripped to 320KBPS CBR is fine, so I assume it’s something about a variable bit rate that’s trashing the sound. It’s unlistenable to me; it’s so apparent compared to anything else I listen to that it’s completely distracting me from the music itself.
