I'm using a script I wrote to rip a CD twice (each rip creating a binary file and toc file), compare the two rips with cmp, convert the toc to cue with toc2cue, create a single FLAC file with flac, and split the FLAC file into separate track files with cuebreakpoints. I'd be happy to post the script if anyone is interested. It works really well. I'm very concerned with having as perfect a copy of the original CD as possible. I read an article once about how cdrdao was the only method that seemed to get it right. - Grant
