Only one person can answer what is best for your usage, and that's you. The only two I've used (not counting Real Player or iTunes before I knew better) are EAC and dBpoweramp. In my opinion both EAC and dBpoweramp are excellent, but I like dBpoweramp a lot more because it is much better with metadata, supports more tags at rip time, does both track gain and album gain tags, takes care of album art, and easily creates both FLAC (home) and MP3(mobile) at the same time. The only drawback is that dBp isn't free, but it's well worth the $36 for the reference version.
dBpoweramp has a 30-day free trial - try it and decide for yourself. A lot of other rippers have free trial periods as well. Take a look at the ripping/tagging section of the Beginner's Guide at http://wiki.slimdevices.com/ to see what other options are out there. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61159 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
