I call it "cd2mp3" - the name says it all. # Rip MP3s from a CD - version 2023-04-21 cdparanoia -B #cdda2wav -D /dev/cdrom -x -B -O wav #icedax -D /dev/sr0 -x -B -O wav for t in *.wav; do lame $t; done As you may have noticed, I experimented with a couple of other programs (cdda2wav and icedax), but finally returned to good old cdparanoia. It works well, and tries really hard if it's dealing with a damaged CD. -- /~\ Charlie Gibbs | Life is perverse. \ / <[email protected]> | It can be beautiful - X I'm really at ac.dekanfrus | but it won't. / \ if you read it the right way. | -- Lily Tomlin
