Is there a stereo that has a hard drive and can rip CD's without a computer

I'm looking for a stereo that can rip CD's to an internal hard drive so you can play them back, but I want something that you don't have to hook up to a computer at all. I want to give it as a gift to my parents who won't use it if you have to sync it with a computer. The more affordable the better
Tip for best answer: M$3.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

For the budget conscious, there are a few "rip to mp3" player systems out there.

Examples:
The RCA systems with "Rip & Go" - http://www.amazon.com/RCA-RS2130I-160-Watt-Audio-System/dp/B001BTX15K/ref=dp_cp_ob_e_title_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1229396519&sr=8-1#moreAboutThisProduct
The RCA's seem to all come with mp3 players. But, be sure to read some reviews:

Philips has some "boom box" systems with the name "Soundmachine mp3".

Unfortunately, like the RCA, they get poorly reviewed:

Another thought:
Buy them an mp3 player of quality and one of these "ripping services".

The SongCube can work with or with out a computer to rip or encode music.

Also, Sony has one called CMT-L7HD.

Philips do an excellent system that can not only rip CDs to the internal hard drive (and if there is a wifi connection will automatically get titles etc) but can also be expanded to other rooms of the house with satellite systems that can access the music library on the main machine.

You could also check Imerge, who have been making these systems for over ten years, though typically need connected to a separate amplifier/speaker system, which makes them less self-contained than the Philips system.

I'm pretty sure they exist, but I can't think of a specific thing right now. You could do it with an XBox 360, or a modded XBox 1. Softmod it, drop a big hard drive in it and rip away. I assume there is an app for the XBox 1 to rip the CD's, but if not, you can either rip them and FTP them over, or keep them on your PC and share the folder and use XBMC. Just ideas.

There is a whole list of cd burners at NexTag. Some are good just for cd's while others can perform up to 5 different functions. Check em all out at the link below.
