In reply to:I've mentioned it here before, but I'm a big fan of the EAC/Lame pair. As was stated above, you only (hopefuly) rip a CD once, but listen to it many times.Damn you people!  ;-)

OK, OK, you're right. As you've pointed out I want to do this right the first time. That's why I started this thread.

That's a good idea about using my time at work to rip the CD's and then encode them overnight. But how do you get the ID tag information preserved from the rip to the encode if they are two steps?

I'm also going to look into automating the whole process. I have a 300 CD jukebox that I can control programatically with Slink-e from <A HREF="http://www.nirvis.com" target="_new">Nirvis</A>. The jukebox has digital output and my soundcard has a digital input so, theoretically, I can rip WAV's from the jukebox without ever going to analog. If so, then I should be able to write a program or some script that will automate the process.
