uploading CD's

I plan to finally get around to uploading and storing the 100's of CD's I have in boxes onto an external drive. I know it is straight forward, but is there a program or does anyone have any tips to maximize sound quality, or am I talking out my *** and it makes no difference?
Also, I am wanting to change my user name from my full name to just a nickname, going into all the edit options I have yet to find how I can do this. thanks in advance.

 

Thanks for replying, just meant changing it on this site. I can't find anywhere that I can change my username. I am able to change the password ok.

 

You can't change your user name here at MG's. You'd need to create a new account with the new user name. Since MG's traces IP addresses, THAT may not be possible.

As far as your boxes of CDs, CD quality sound is 192 Kb/s. Your CD ripping software needs to be able to support that bitrate. AudioGrabber is one program, and CDex is another.
