How can I best use my audio CD s for background music at home?
I would ideally like to transfer my CD’s to a Hard drive, then using my PC and audio amplifier distribute audio to the living areas in my home. Is it possible to use either the Playstation3 or XBox360 for storage and playback? I am considering getting one of these consoles for gaming (FPS’s is my thing) but can still be swayed either way.

I assume you don’t have iTunes – with iTunes, all you have to do is insert your CD into the computer, and it automatically copies it into your musical library, in full lossless CD quality. All you have to do is put the CD in, and it’s on your hard drive forever. Press play, and you’ve got background music.
ps – may I suggest Air’s "Moon Safari" album for background music? Terrific album, would stop a raging rhino and put him to sleep.

I wouldn’t use my gaming console to store music if I were you – you’ll run out of space VERY fast. If you want the music to be on your gaming console, buy an Xbox 360, buy a wireless router, and use the Media Center in your computer to link up your hard drive to your 360.
i dont know about the ps3 but the 360 can share music with your pc because i listen to music on my 360 that is shared from my desktop….they want you to use the windows media center w/e…but its easier for me to just use my zune program( which is free to download) and share my music it from it…but if you have media center then that is probably the best option
360 can
