Win a 200-CD conversion from Ripstyles, plus a discount for everyone

by TUAW Blogger (RSS feed) on Aug 21st, 2008

ripstyles giveawaySo if you're looking to ditch the CDs when you move into the dorm but don't have the time or inclination to rip them yourself, why not take a look at Ripstyles? They were kind enough to offer today's prize: 200 CDs in their Premiere Stylizing service can be ripped for free (and they'll give you a deal if you want to rip more).

But if you don't win the prize, fear not. They are also offering a 10% discount off all their CD conversion services, as well as their Ripserver, by simply using the promo code "TUAW" (no quotes). Not bad, considering it can take hours to rip hundreds of discs. That's time you could spend studying!

As usual, read the rules below. This time, in order to enter the giveaway, we'd like you to tell us your favorite song in the comments. Good luck!

  • Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, the District of Columbia and Canada (excluding Quebec) who are 18 and older.
  • To enter leave a comment telling us your favorite song.
  • The comment must be left before August 22, 11:59PM Eastern Time.
  • You may enter only once.
  • One winner will be selected in a random drawing.
  • Prize: 200 CDs converted using Ripstyles Premiere service ($158 value)
  • Click Here for complete Official Rules.

Control iTunes from your Dock

by Mike Schramm (RSS feed) on Aug 28th, 2007



Jonathan from Ripstyles.com sent along this easy little pack of apps, just like Dockables, that can be used to control iTunes from your Dock if you so choose. He confides in us that it wasn't that hard to put together ("just a few Applescripts"), and yes, it's true that there are now about five million ways to control iTunes out there, but what the heck, here's one more, just in case you haven't found your sweet spot yet.

Actually, it would be awesome to control iTunes using Speakable Items! Has anyone done that yet? Then, you could make two recordings in Garageband that said "next track" and "previous track," import them into iTunes, and iTunes could control itself! Trippy!
