What is best Audio CD rippper & burner

Hi,
What is the best program for ripping audio to mp3 format and burning CDs.  I use E17 as a WM and would rather not use anything that required all the KDE libs.


TIA

use grip - it's great... but does require "libgnomeui" - dunno if that's a big deal or not.

The best thing about grip is it just goes - you set it to "rip CD on insert" and "eject when done" and sit back and watch tv while you simply replace CDs as the tray pops out

abcde: A frontend command-line utility (actually, a shell script) that grabs tracks off a CD, encodes them to ogg or mp3 format, and tags them, all in one go.

abcde for the non-gui types
grip for the gui

both give total control over bitrate, quality, encoding
some (kde) just honor the (kde) wide settings


apt-get install arch

AFAIK, there's nothing out there that lets you rip and encode to AAC or Musepack in one go.

Grip (via config/encoder/other - put in your commandline parameters there).
K3B also rips audio CD's pretty decently.

ripperX is good too for the people without gnome.

Re: What is best Audio CD rippper & burner

any cdparanoia based program is fine to me. I won't use programs that simply use cdda2wav.

For burning audio, chrdao is the only thing I want to use (I hate TAO audio disks).
