Looking for a good cd ripper to mp3 format

[divx]

I did a forum search and didn't find what I was looking for. Anyone know a good free program that will rip cd content to mp3 format? I have an ipod so it's not possible to play the wma format which can easily be ripped with WMP.

Look for a program called JetAudio it's the best i've found

I like CDex, it uses the LAME encoder or any encoder you choose. It is easy to use and does it in one step

But I have to agree, to get the best possibile quality, use EAC and LAME together.

I've ripped all of my albums using this method. Takes some time, but well worth it.

While this may rip the best possible quality, it's also not necessarily the best options for the individual. It is how those music pirates would like for you to rip though, so that everything is in THEIR standards. They're kind of a joke in the EAC forums :D.

Use the guide as a last resort for EAC. I suggest the Coaster Factory tutorial, as it actually explains things: http://users.pandora.be/satcp/
