Ripping CD Software

[Carlosinfl]

I was wondering what you guys use on Windows (XP) to rip your music from CD to MP3. I know WMP 11/12 can do this but I was wondering if there are others that most people recommend?

EAC.

Thanks I will try that!

CDex for mp3. EAC or MediaMonkey for FLAC.

Actually I use MediaMonkey for both. Awesome app. I only convert to mp3 for my iPod. MediaMonkey will convert and transfer songs to my iPod in one or two steps. Very nice.

But what about applying equalization/loud to MP3's so they sound good when you burn them? I've only seen Nero 7 that can do that to them before burning. Nothing else has an equalizer ...

I only use mp3. Will CDex pull media info like album art and data like WMP does?

EAC with LAME is the only option you need. Simply the best.

not too sure about album art, but it will pull album info and insert into the id3 tag

I used WinAMP in the past. Worked great for me but I would not consider myself an audiophile so there are probably better options.

I use CDex with the LAME encoder. No issues here.
