No comparison between the silenzio rips and those from the service. I've just developed a project for the next few months ... re-ripping the entire colllection, but doing it right this time. Not kidding - to my ear, the silenzio rips sound better from the silenzio than the spinning cd on a mega buck dp900/dc901 combo.
One of the important differentiators for me was the ability to use the silenzio to capture content only available via cd (as I had no other spinner with which to do so and didn't want to add another box to the Mac mini). Mission accomplished - the rips sound fantastic.
