I am looking to rip a few audio CD's which I've never really done before. I've got dBpoweramp installed - if this a half decent ripper? After searching through the forums - I noticed the majority of people seem to favour EAC.

Any suggestions or favourites?

Thanks for your time.

I'll put a spanner in the works and say I really like CDex with the LAME encoder.

EAC is another good proggy, but I can't say I've used it as extensively as I have CDex. You can't go wrong with either one.

Hi,
i use 'Handy CD Ripper'(http://handyripper.com). It is not very powerful such as EAC but i've found that it is convenient for me.

I shouldn´t really say this here cos I could get my bottom severly spanked, but I use Nero 7 to rip my CDs to MP3.

Why I say that is ´cos I foolishly gave Ahead, the producer of Nero, lots of money for an annoying, unstable, interfering, mostly unnecessary software (more a kind of malware) package...therefore I´m gonna bloody well use it. It´s so stupid it can´t even remember my settings...

Just take a simple freeware with no frills and easy to use instead of wasting your life with complications and fancy frills...and use EAC if you run into trouble.

You may try to Cusoft dvd ripper.

Thanks for all your suggestions - will try them and see which I like best.
