[Cjattwood]

does that program support FreeDB?

I personally use Foobar, its fast and the settings are exactly what I like, except no FreeDB lookup

nevermind. just had to download winzip. anyways, this software stuff is confusing. eac, foobar, etc. etc. and all those aditional plug ins. its driving me insane. i should just go back to itunes.

iTunes is the best encoder I've found. But I'm on a Mac, not a PC.

See ya

My personal favourite is KAudioCreator, but that's for Linux & other UNIX flavours.

My favorite is EAC and foobar... EAC can read CDs other rippers can't and takes care that there are no errors due to scratches, and you can use it with lots of fine encoders (read LAME, Ogg Vorbis and MPC). And foobar is probably the best MP3 player available... Nothing in the world of Windows and Linux (and probably also Mac) can match it.
