When I converted my extensive CD collection to MP3s many years ago I used CDParanoia to make them into .wav files, and then used lame to convert them to mp3. For the latter I used variable bit rate. The file sizes were always reasonable, and I couldn't tell the difference between playing my mp3 or playing the original CD. Here are the instructions that I saved, because I knew that later I would never remember how I did it: For ripping with cdparanoia and lame 1) Determine how many tracks on are the CD: cdparanoia -Q 2) Rip the entire audio CD to one giant file (example assumes a disc with 10 tracks): cdparanoia 1-10 /home/jjj/MP3s/cdda.wav 3) Encode to MP3 (320 kbps VBR file): lame --vbr-new -B 320 /home/jjj/MP3s/cdda.wav /home/jjj/happyfunfile.mp3 It worked on my box, at least.
