Rip services for iPod
I just recently noticed these businesses through a couple of blogs:

http://www.riptopia.com/
http://www.loadpod.com/

Does anyone know how these people actually make any money? They're only charging $1 per CD and the loadpod people apparently pick up the cds from your door!

Economies of scale is how they make money. To take advantage of the 1.39 price you need to have a minimum of 50 cds. If you have less its a flat fee of $75. I think its a clever idea. I know several people with very large personal CD collections.

I'm guessing they have alot of high-quality equipment that performs the task and with a large volume of orders, they turn a profit.
