    If you are willing to pay I'm sure any number of people would do it for you.
    How many CDs do you have and how much do you expect to pay?

    I remember reading of a service like this in Dublin, a couple of months ago in the "Hats and Neurotic Fat Women" supplement of the Saturday Irish Times.

    Damned if I remember the name of it though.

    Actually just thinking about it. It would be a great service to offer to for people. You would actually get paid to get your hands on tons of different albums and the more conversions you done for people the easier it would get because you would have most of the albums on your computer database already, unless of course one of your customers was into some really weird sh1t!!!

    service has already been thought of, e.g. google turns up
    http://www.podserve.co.uk/

    remember reading though that another one had been shut down by legal action (can't remember the URL)

    That's ingenius, you get loads of albums and they pay you for them.

    I know of a crowd in Ireland that do this. Not exactly sure where they are based, but a friend of mine from work was telling me about it. It's his brother or his girlfriends brother or something like that, that does it.

    Think it's something like 1euro per CD.

    I'll find out and let you know!
