Looking for CD Advice

[no_hypocrisy]

I want to make a copy of a CD of a recording of an interview. Nothing commercial.

Do I first "rip" the original CD, and then burn it to a blank CD?

Or is it the other way around?

1. If the recording is in MP3 format

Just copy the file to your computer and burn it to a blank CD. Simple.

3. if you care about quality

and you probably don't as it's just an interview you probably want to rip it to a lossless format such as FLAC. Just a note for the future where you might want a flawless copy.
