forbigger Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 Folks, anyone use the above software for ripping cd to flac ? I've been using it for all these time. Is EAC a better alternative?
Dusty Chalk Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 I think pretty much everyone who is Windows-based uses either iTunes or EAC.
manaox2 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 I've used it for a while. It was good. EAC is better.
Beefy Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 I think pretty much everyone who is Windows-based uses either iTunes or EAC. I used to use EAC, but was having some problems. I tried dbpoweramp instead, and liked it so much that I bought it.
grawk Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 yup, I was going to say I think dbpoweramp is the way to go on winders
forbigger Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Posted November 19, 2009 thanks guys..... manaox - how much better actually ? I mean like clearly audible differences ripping using this and EAC ? I dont know about EAC really, just seems cannot get it work.....If it's much better then maybe I'll just bite my tongue and try to resolve my problems with EAC......

The only audible difference that I noticed was that it had less digital errors while ripping. I use EAC for my own security of mind now. There are a lot of great guides online on how to properly configure EAC for your CD drive.
forbigger Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Posted November 19, 2009 thanks......guess im sticking with this for the time being......not worth the hassle......
morphsci Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Another vote for dbpoweramp. It is easy, rips with bit-perfect accuracy (if you want it to), comes with great transcoding tools, has good metadata tools and it will use multiple cores/processors.
Dusty Chalk Posted November 21, 2009 Report Posted November 21, 2009 Looks like my information is a little out of date -- I'd listen to everyone else before you listen to me. Hell, even I'm not going to listen to me -- I'm going to go out and investigate dbpoweramp -- is there a linux version?
screaming oranges Posted November 24, 2009 Report Posted November 24, 2009 I still use EAC. It is fairly easy to set up now, compared to older versions of itself. The setup wizard has really simplified things.
