Munge,
I use Mac and naturally I use the iTunes. I've never used EAC. But
my understanding is that the EAC (Exact Audio Copy!) can do better
job of copying problematic CDs. If I had a choice I'd go with EAC
for that reason. But, having said that I don't really notice
anything wrong with iTunes ripped music... (there was one time when I
tried to ripped a CD that had a crack and it just didn't do it
right) Also, I know that there are plenty of serious audiophiles out
there using iTunes.
Do you see any physical damage on the particular CD you are trying to
rip? How does it do with the iTunes?
I'd like to hear firsthand accounts of using both iTunes/EAC. Anybody?
Best,
Hiroyuki

The CD went back and forth for ages and then it said that there was an
error. No file created.
Look here, I've got a hifi CD player with which I am happy. It doesn't
retry 28 times and then delivers the sound, it gives me great sound at
once. What is so different with the PC CD drive? I never get any read
errors when I read a software CD. What's so special with ripping audio
CDs? I'm beginning to think that all this is mumbo jumbo. Please
explain why I need this EAC tool. Otherwise I will go for iTunes -->
WAV --> Flac Frontend --> Flac. At least it works and is easy to use.
