Does anyone know a good cd-ripper?

The Creative Cd-ripper that came with my mp3-player kinda sucks. You get all kinds of small glitches and clicks. ARGH!
Does anyone have a ripper that's flawless?

I heard Tiesto can rip it sick.

there is only one way to go if you want quality:

EAC (secure mode) in combination with Lame (--preset extreme)

what about i-tunes.

the guy just sounds like he needs something functional first before getting near 1140 quality

like kleenex, or band-aid.

the apple brand is something to which no quarter should be given more than it's allowed in our cultural consciousness.

personally, i've burned several hundred discs with iTunes and have never had a problem. i also use Toast 7 when i need to burn dj mixes or do direct disc image copies. rarely have probs with Toast and the serial numbers are easy to get. i'd like to hear someone who doesn't like iTunes and who actually uses it or has used it extensively to say why they think it sucks.

Leon, if you want a free solution, use itunes unless the majority of what you're burning is DJ mixes seperated into diff. tracks, then iTunes always puts a tiny gap between the songs even when set to 0. you could get around this by joining tracks but thats a pain. Download Toast and then google for Toast Serial Hack or something like that and you'll be on your way.

I never had any problem using iTunes or Toast (both used very intensively) & they're both very easy to handle...

the question, however, is not about BURNING, but rather about ENCODING audio cds to mp3, the other way around
