Yes, it is using the same backend - GRIP just doesn't use this error
data other than to animate the face, which doesn't help me much after
the rip is completed.  Rubyripper is pretty neat though, in that it
uses the rip data from cdparanoia and compares multiple trials in a
novel way.

I'm still working out the kinks.  My tagging still isn't right and for
some reason I can't encode to MP3.

I'll have to check out eyed3.  EasyTag is nice, but there are some
things I could do with Mp3tag that I can't do in EasyTag - look at
*all* tags, for instance, remove certain tag types and leave others,
plus whole-folder tag editing (say you wanted to change the album name
of every tag in the folder but leave the other tags.)

I'm overjoyed that Audacity works fine in Linux.  I wish there was an
automated way to cut based on title/track marks (.IFO files IIRC) but I
couldn't get that to work in Windows.
