if your doing a direct copy you shouldnt lose any quality. If your saving the tracks to your computer first, than nero saves them as mp4 I think, but thats only if you rip cds
There is a loss, but can your system reveal the difference? If you listen to these in the car then it's fine. Exact Audio Copy is a better program, google it.
yeah,i agree somewhat with alan v, but not necessarily mp4.. if your doing it through realplayer u have options as to what format u would like to save it as and also bit rate.. yeah, the quality does drop a bit when saving them to ur pc, and then ripping them as an audio cd..
