Sorry to jump into this thread but reading those flac comments makes meThis was discussed a little over a year ago in a previous thread, you can see my response there:
want to try it out. Can someone point me to a good 'copy that CD into
flac' site or just to indicate the steps/instructions I need to do this
using EAC or other software. So far all my CDs are encoded in mp3 and
Ogg (mainly because my personal DP reads these formats), but I'd like
to start using flac for all my new CDs, in readiness for my SB2 system.
Any help/pointers appreciated.

But in a quick summary here is what I did.
I used EAC to encode directly to FLAC. It is identical to setting up EAC to encode to LAME.
You just select "Other Codec" in the settings and point to where the FLAC.exe file is located.
You can get the codec at http://flac.sourceforge.net/ plus links to other software that supports FLAC.
Settings for using alternative codecs in EAC can be found at http://www.saunalahti.fi/cse/EAC/.
dbPowerAmp, can also rip from CD to FLAC. It worked well in a few trials that I did. If you are not
willing to wait for EAC I think it is a good substitute. Even with its AccurateRip feature turned on ,
which I would recommend, it was about twice as fast as EAC.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
