Exact Audio Copy. Open source and guaranteed perfect copy. Most fast ones would have single bit errors.
EAC is closed source freeware. Still the best tool back then under Windows
Still is, right? (Open for recommendations)
I don't know, haven't been using Windows since a long time ago, but given the fact that ripping CDs isn't that common nowadays I'd be surprised if a new tool came out that is better than EAC.
Same. EAC + LAME using config guides from NMP3s at the SomethingAwful forums, and then later Oink.
what.cd represent! This is the gold standard and if anyone is coming here for advice an what to use themselves, this is it.
