That way you would have a secure ripper to do your work and the multi ripper tool. That way you could use multiple cd or dvd drives to rip to multiple formats. I don't know if Mediamonkey can rip to different types or not as I've had it for a while but I always use dbpoweramp for ripping and Mediamonkey for organizing and some tagging. I actually mainly use dbpoweramp now for everything.
