The > above link is completely free What are you talking about? The only recomendations in this thread have been for free programs that just like EAC, also use the free Lame encoder. Since the thing that controlls the quality of the resulting MP3 encoding is the thing that all the recomendations have in common... the Lame encoder, and the rest is just a user interface wrapped around that encoder, the smart thing to do is pick the one that matches your needs for features and ease of use. I found FreeRIP (http://www.mgshareware.com/frmmain.shtml) to be extremely powerful, easy to use, and packaged with everything needed in one download, in addition to being completely free. Since EAC seems to be extremely popular, I plan to take a look at that too now just in case it has some nifty feature that I didn't relize I might want. After I do that, if I discover that either FreeRIP or EAC has any significant differences or advantages in my opinion, I'll report that here so that others can decide on their own what might be best for their needs. The main point to remember is that when you have several choices that all use the Lame encoder, they all will give you the same quality encoding, so you should pick one that has the simplicity or complexity of user interface features that you desire. ===== Craig rb_dev_at_yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
