I have some old CD's that I would like to turn to MP3 on a Windows XP
platform. What should I be using?


TIA

So that's what Chris Myden is doing after Ubernet! Chris has never held
back from demanding very high quality results but he tends to assume his
readers already have some experience.

Newbies might find Radified is an easier way to learn ripping.

Exact Audio Copy
<http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/>

with LAME encoder.

Here's a manual (a bit outdated, but it's still useful)

<http://fred.pouchayret.free.fr/eac-qs-en.htm>

It's a bit of a hassle to set it up, but once everything is in place
it's very easy to rip CDs to MP3.

Why use EAC? Because it's the best (or so I've been told by 'people who
know what's best). If your old CDs have scratches on them you'll find
EAC very handy; it's very thorough.
