Any ripped CD Album will be added to Innuos server Music Library and immediately available to be played on your system. You may rip your entire CDs collection (one at a time) or any occasional CD purchase.

Besides higher noise/interference considerations while playing a disc directly on the CD drive the purpose of a Music server/streamer is to hold the digital Music Library centrally stored and then serve or stream it locally to your network connected Hi-Fi devices or play it to a directly attached DAC. Innuos servers/streamers do not work as legacy CD players by design so don’t expect to be able to play any inserted disc without ripping it first. Inserting any foreign objects (such as paper labels or plastic wraps) with the disc may also lead to permanent damage to the CD drive – so please avoid inserting them. Please bear in mind that inserting any unsupported disc or discs bearing copying protection mechanisms or damages (scratches, warps or any other physical damages to its surfaces) will not work and possibly prevent the CD drive from working properly and may lead to a stuck disc inside. Any other disc formats such as CDHD, SACD, VideoCD, DVD, Blu-ray, etc. Innuos servers support ripping CDDA (Red book standard compliant) discs only.
