Actually dbpoweramp gets a lot of information that you won't get with
EAC. Plus you are getting it from 2 pay sites and 2 or 3 free ones and
is combined but you can see what it gets from each and choose if you
would like.  Plus you get all the conversion tools also with dsp's like
replay gain and other ones that may or may not be useful to you.  I was
just playing around with a reverse tool that let me reverse Roger
Waters tracks about Stanley Kubeck.  Kind of fun and there are over 15
tools to play with your tracks.  What it comes down to is if you want a
free program you can't do any better than EAC.  If you don't mind paying
then dbpoweramp really is worth every penny with a ton of features and
as good or better secure ripping.  But like I say, you won't go wrong
by any means for ripping than EAC.
