I imagine this would be the case seeing as it compresses it and then decompresses it. How much you lose would come down to the program being used I would suspect.

Windows media player, rip using WAV lossless.  Here is a screenshot of the settings:

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

Some people'd be wrong. For an .mp3 rip, even if you don't burn it back to a CD, the original signal is trashed. If you rip to .wav or .flac, or Lossless .m4a, (or ANY lossless format, for that matter) then the quality will be identical upon re-burn. If you're worried about it, rip the entire CD to an image, and then return it to a destination CD... Bit for bit copy, thus there cannot be any loss.
It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Good stuff to know. I don't rip anything much anymore but, very good information to know.
