Which CD ripper utility did you use in the 00s?

I remember using Audiograbber at one point and was surprised to see it was still maintained.
I had a CD drive driver that would make windows explorer show CD audio discs as folders for quality levels, and then the tracks as files. Pick the ones you wanted, drag them somewhere, and get PCM wav files of the tracks. Encode them at your leisure. I miss that utility.
