    dBpoweramp license

    Hi Guys, I am guessing I know the answer to this question but wanted to ask to be sure. I got a new Macbook air 512gb for the purpose of ripping my library only (plus a bit of email). I maintain 2 libraries, one FLAC and another in MP3. My SSD memory is almost full, with 60gb free only now. I still have quite a few discs to go (got some new ones). The only files on this laptop are the music files. I have an old 2015 Macbook Pro that I have emptied of data and have about 450gb free on this machine. I was thinking to use it to rip the MP3 files (currently at about 80gb) but then there is the license issue, IE using on 2 computers. I could rip the MP3 to an external hard drive and then copy to the MBP, but its just another step in the chain and more time consuming. I am alone, IE no family but I am guessing to be able to use dBp on the older laptop I would need the family license? Please confirm and thank you in advance.

    You are best ripping once to flac, then convert the flac files to mp3, will save a bunch of time. Create a network share on the old computer where the mp3 files need to be saved and connect the new computer to old and use that share location as the Output To location.

      Thanks Spoon, I will have to Google how to do that, but it's probably the right solution. Cheers
