Simplify multi-CD ripping in iTunes on dialup connections

Until recently I only had dialup access at home, so it was really tedious having to connect up each time I wanted to rip a CD into iTunes.

I quickly figured out that you can connect to your ISP, insert each CD, let iTunes contact CDDB and get the album info, then eject the CD without ripping it. Do this for all the CD's you wish to rip. Then disconnect. Now reinsert each CD and rip - et voila ! iTunes remembers each CD.

This really helped me when I had 50+ CD's to add.
