R14 of dbpa does not have any renewals for metadata source (this is new as prior to this it is correct that there was a $5 renewal fee for the AMG metadata source).
accuraterip is no sales gimmick. It is a very useful feature for getting accurate rips. I too have many cds that accuraterip doesn't find (obscure stuff). But it finds a lot (in my case maybe 60% of my cds) and saves lots of time while helping insure an accurate rip. I'm not familiar with winamp's ripping quality, but in several years of reading about this on several forums, I've never seen any users serious about ripping (or conversion) quality recommend winamp. For windows users, it is always EAC, dbpa, and sometimes foobar. I've used all 3 and dbpa is my preferred choice. It is the best $30-40 bucks I've ever spent. I have the family pack as I use it on one machine at home and also on my machine at the office. If you really don't want to spend the money, you can always use EAC for ripping. It has accuraterip too. -- garym ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82688 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
