As long as you are online, all that metadata is available with no
effort.

In general, I play files with a simple audio player without using a browser
or web. So you condition essentially returns 'false' for me.

I do now have a 'DAP', but of course when this will be used, it isn't
connected to the net or any wireless, etc. So again, would return 'false'
as above.

Anyway, there's nothing to stop you keeping the sleeve notes -
and the original disc .

Scanning it is the problem. Otherwise if you have to find the CD booklet,
so you may as well keep the CD with it and play that. :-)

In general I've not bothered to rip CDs. More useful from my POV to make
transfers from old LPs. The resulting file *is* more convenient to play -
particularly if I'm in the kitchen, say. And also lets me deal with
'clicks'.
