Sorry to contradict you, but there's nothing cheesy about the 
conversion program I use: CDXtract. It's one of the simplest, best 
supported software I own,  and the interface rocks.

If you want thieves, you'll find them on Kazaa, Hotline, Carraco, etc. 
I believe the word you actually meant to use was hard-working, gifted 
programmers.

I'd rather entrust the conversion of my samples to a professional 
rather than to an amateur.

LOL! Ummm, Ned, IIRC it was comedian Garth Hjelte of Rubber Chicken

Actually, I think it was Nick who made them. And yeah Ned, maybe you didn't
quite pick up on the sarcastic tone of the original post. It was subtle,
which made it all the more humorously sarcastic (IMO) !

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,

My email was down for a few days, so I must have missed Garth's first

I still think conversion programs suck!
