How can you store your music in cda anyway? |

.CDA is just windows' interpretation of the .wav files on a CD that are burned in an audio CD format (vs. data cd) - windows does this becuase it's crappy
you can't drag and drop the .cda files from your disk.. you need a ripper to rip it to .wav and then you can edit it in your audio editor.. I recommend CDEX (freeware) to rip/encode your CDs.. |

cda's are like a shortcut to the wav that windows uses so that you cant just copy the cda's across. thats where CDEX comes into play as aforementioned |

yes, it will retain original quality if you rip to wav files, and do not code to mp3. if the quality suffers anyway, use a different cd-rip mode. or use exact audio copy from www.exactaudiocopy.de |
