Dont really have a problem with space but from whats being said, at this point it might be best changing the format i use at the moment to flac then everything i save from now will be in that format, then if i want to change the format of the cd's copied i can do that later. I can then keep this as a master backup and change to another format to go on my PC.
One question though - if i am to choose a format for on my Pc am i right in thinking MP£ is the most flexible.
Thanks for your help with this, you learn something new every day.
If you intend to make FLACs and then transcode to MP3 for use on your computer then I would just say "yes", but lots of ifs, ands, and buts can be introduced depending.
