I haven't kept up my subscription of Crossover Office as it's just far easier to use iTunes for purchases under Windows. Mostly I don't buy much from them as I don't like the sound of their encoding but it works great for keeping my kid happy. I tend to use iTunes to rip my CDs in Apple's lossless encoder as that format is supported in Windows and OSX as well as Aqualung on Linux. If I don't use iTunes to rip then I do it in Linux using K3b. Hope this helps, Mark -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
