WAV files are not just raw audio data, they have a header and padding. It's perfectly possible that the same track would have different md5s because of this - you need something which will actually compare the audio data. I seem to remember EAC has this function. But really, dBp and EAC are the gold standard of ripping, I'd be happy using either (and have used both extensively) - which you use should be based on features and cost, not any doubts as to their accuracy.
Wavpack is interesting, but if no portable players support the lossy part it's pretty pointless :) I maintain an mp3 copy using flac2mp3 - the disk usage is minimal and mp3 is of course universally compatible. -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60890 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
