hello im starting to rip all of my k disks into my computer but there seems to be several formats that i cna do it in mp3+g wma+g wav+g bin and kmf are the ones im always seeing but which one is the most universal to use if i end up switching software later on

I use Sax and Dotty's and they use a .zip format.  MP3+G Toolz will help you convert from one format to another.

I would prefer the mp3+g format for your application. Too many times have I found that you have incompatibilities between whatever you zipped your files with, and the version of winzip. Example, winzip is not upwards compatible. Version 9 unzips version 8 files, but not the other way around. Also, mp3+g format is the same size as the zip file. Downfall, 2 files for every song instead of 1.

having 2 files for every song doesnt bother me that much i allready have 80,000 ripped mp3's from my cds i just want to make sure i wont have to reconvert everyhting later on if i decide to use a new program

Most universal I would say would be MP3+G zipped or not.

One thing you should consider if you haven't already is the naming sequence of your files.  Just in case you have a KJ program that needs to see the files a certain way. ARTIST-TITLE -DISC  or whatever .
