That looks like a good program, and I wonder if it can rip Sony's protected CDs. I think all rippers should come with a root kit remover now.. ;)

My favorite CD ripper is Audiograbber, http://www.audiograbber.com-us.net, which was Shareware for a long time, and now it's Freeware. It has lots of displays to see what's going on with the CD speed and the encoding. Lame isn't built in, but there's a link right on the site to download it to the program. Ogg Vorbis is included though.

Another one I like is CDex, http://cdexos.sourceforge.net plain and simple, but it has plenty of settings, and all of the codecs built in. It has some 'paranoia' settings to try and get perfect rips from scratched disks. That may help get a good rip, but I've found that getting an okay rip from a crap disk has more to do with the quality of the CD drive than the program or setting used.

This was the funniest thing I read all day.

Yeah, but if you don't rip it, then it's not your quality control. I got watery sounding songs at 128k from an album I downloaded recently.

I like the ogg format a lot, and when I do my own rips, I usually archive in ogg, unless the playlist will be used on a DVD player or some device that needs mp3.

Now I want to try something new: Wav DVDs. I have yet to collect enough CDs to rip and fill one though. Flac format might be even better when you want to tag the files so that players like VU Player can show the details of the song-album-artist in the program. Flac uses lossless compression, so on playback, it's the same quality as wav.

Shawners is on oink. He knows what he's talking about. All the oink stuff is awesome quality. I only rip if specifically want something in FLAC.
