ReadyToPlay Redefines Quality

With recent innovations in both technology and process, we convert your CDs into a library-quality collection unlike any other professional ripping company. 

With over five years of experience, ReadyToPlay is the leader when working with demanding high-profile clients including Hollywood stars, recording industry executives and performers, business leaders, sports celebrities and some of the biggest names in classical music. 

Only ReadyToPlay combines all of these features to offer the highest level of service and quality to our customers:

  • AMG metadata (artist, album, genre, etc) combined with other databases for clean library-quality data.  Your collection has consistent genres, artist names and album titles all logically-organized.
  • Specialist review on every collection.  Our engineers hand-certify each project and manually edit the metadata for consistency across the whole collection.  This is the only way to ensure that your collection is clean and usable.
  • We support all formats.  MP3, FLAC, Apple Lossless, WMA Lossless, AAC, WMA, AIFF and WAV.  Get any single format for the same price or get a second additional format for a small incremental fee.
  • Secure ripping.  First, we perform an error-free audio extraction from your CDs.  Ripped files are compared against other known perfect conversions of the same disc for accuracy.  If your CD is scratched and we can’t get a perfect extraction after cleaning and multiple tries, we’ll note it in a failure report.
  • High-resolution artwork . We get 95-99% of all artwork for a typical rock/pop collection.  When our databases do not yet have artwork, we search online and add it manually.
  • Deep Music Styles. We’re the first to include deep music styles within each genre for an even better description of your music.  With CDs found in AMG, you can now search within iTunes and select only your “Arena Rock,” “British Metal,” “Ambient Pop” or “Psychedelic Pop.”  For an example list of Rock styles, click here. Playback devices may limit the amount of deep data that is displayed, call us and we can advise you.
  • Deep Classical Metadata. Composer data and classical sub-genres like Symphonic, Choral, Orchestral, Opera & Chamber are typically provided.   To see a list of the genres we use, click here.
  • Our DataGroom process fixes duplicate album naming, disc numbering, inconsistent spelling, etc.  Read more about the DataGroom process here [link to DataGroom Page’.
  • We hand-enter CDs for live concert recordings, bootlegs, sermons or teaching archives (a surcharge applies).  Bring us your Grateful Dead/Phish/Widespread Panic bootleg collections.  We will hand enter the date and show venue, so the shows are sorted in chronological order by album.
  • No online ordering.  Each customer is unique.  We work with you to address your needs and concerns up front. Talk to a real person before you send your CD collection. Get the answers to your questions and make an intelligent, future-proof decision about your digital music needs.
