When I try and import a CD to my itunes account on my laptop its take about 20 minutes per song (speed 0.2x). My question is how do I import the CD quicker?

Anyone?

go to settings, general , import settings and untick "use error correction when reading audio CDs"

It's already 'unticked'

Have you tried using MP3 instead of AAC?

Another posibility is that the firmware for your drive needs updating - Check if there is an update available on your laptop makers website.

Also how scratched is the CD?

That is very slow. My 800MHz iMac is faster than that. What bit rate are you using for the files? I think the more compression the slower the import, so try using a higher bit rate.

There's something definitely wrong if it is taking that amount of time. Do you have any other cd import s/w on your laptop that you can try as a comparison?
