Looking for a good one. I currently use FreeRip, which works well, but is a
bit lacking in track and artist naming, etc.
TIA

EAC is an Audio Grabber for CD-ROM drives.

Features:
- Usage of the Windows 95 and Windows NT ASPI Interface, so both SCSI
and ATAPI CD-ROM drives are supported
- Hidden sector synchronization (jitter correction)
- Secure, fast and burst extraction methods selectable. Fast extraction
should run at the same speed as other grabbers, but is probably not
exact anymore. Burst mode just grabs the audio data without any
synchronization.
- Read error and complete loss of sync detection and correction in
secure modes, as far as possible
- Output of time positions of all non-exact corrections and listen to
these positions
- Copy of ranges of music data, not only tracks
- Automatic Speed reduction on errors and fallback afterwards
- Normalization of extracted audio
- Usage of the Windows Audio Compression Manager (ACM Codecs) for direct
compression e.g. to MP3 waves
- Support for the BladeEnc DLL that is usable like an ACM Codec for
online MP3 compression
- Support of external MP3, VQF, RA and AAC encoders for automatic
compression after extraction
- Batch compression and decompression of/to WAV files
- Compression offset support for exact compression/decompression
- Detection of pre-track gaps
- Detection of silence in pre-track gaps
- Automatic creation of CUE sheets for CDRWin, including all gaps,
indicies, track attributes, UPC and ISRC
- CD player functionality and prelistening to selected ranges
- Automatic detection of drive features, whether a drive has an accurate
stream and/or does caching
- Sample Offsets for drives with no accurate streams, including the
option of filling up missing samples with silence
- Option for synchronizing tracks for non-accurate stream drives
- Filename editing with local and remote CDDB database and cdplayer.ini
support and more features like ID3 tagging
- Browse and edit local database
- Certified Escient ® CDDB(TM) Compatible
- Local CDDB support
- Record and Loop Record functions for recording from LP, radio, etc.
- Automatic rename of MP3 files according to their ID3 tag
- Catalog extraction function
- Multisession (CD-Extra) support
- CD-Text support
- CD-Write support for some drives
- ID3 Tag editor with drag and drop possibility from track listing and
database
- Glitch removal after extraction
- Small WAV editor with the following functionality: delete, trim,
normalize, pad, glitch removal, pop detection, interpolation of
ranges, noise reduction, fade in/out, undo (and more)
- Program is Cardware, so feel free to copy

CDex works great right out of the box. User friendly and works for most
cases.

EAC has the edge over CDex when it comes to ripping bad CDs, but is more
messy to set up properly.

I recommend trying both.
