Best free ripper?

[knowitall]

Can anyone recommend a good, fast, free cd ripper?

Windows media player if you don't mind WMA... iTunes for AAC.. Winamp I think does something, but I don't think the free version dose MP3... Burnatonce... etc. Look on google or sourceforge, there's plenty to pick from.

CDEx - The best there is. Rip to mp3, ogg, and others.

Exact Audio Copy. You wanted the best, that is the best.

He said fast.

He said Good, fast and free, that describes CDEx. But anyways, this isnt something so great as to get into an argument. To each his own. Try 'em all, you judge them.

When I used EAC.. I must have done something wrong.. because I told it to encode to 320.. but instead it encoded to 28... hmmm

Started up CDex and its perfect for me.

Okay, so I'm going to try CDex. Now I'm at the dl page and have a choice between a .zip file and a .exe file. Which is better and why?

EAC (www.exactaudiocopy.de) with LAME is all you'll ever need.

I have dmc audio input but it takes like 30 min. to rip a disc. I hope this isn't considered fast.

EAC for quality.
Cdex for Speed and ease of use.
