I use Nero 7 for my burning needs. Does anyone have a preference for what software to use for ripping CD's to MP3's?

I would like the software to do the following:
-Pull CD info from the internet
-Keep "Album" information in order without having to rename the tracks - "01 Let It Be", etc.
-Choose what Bitrate I would like to encode

Any suggestions?

Wow. Must check that out...I was just asking about burning tracks without gaps recently, Dean recommended Nero, is it possible to do that with CDex, Holiday?

I use CDBurnerXP Pro 3 to rip and burn. Probably not the best but it usually does what it's supposed to do.

Oh, and it's free :)

Nope. CDex is not a burning software. It just extracts and/or convert to mp3.

I use CDex as well for ripping. Burning, I usually just use Nero. I think Foobar2000 can burn without gaps, but it's tricky to configure (and it uses Nero's files anyway).


That which does not kill me postpones the inevitable.

CDex, I just downloaded it. I do not see an option to adjust Bitrate.

Is there one and I am not seeing it?

i use Exact Audio Copy and lame mp3 maker thingy.
works a treat and creates the best copies available.
since i use EAC to make my wav copies, makes sense to me to use it for mp3 as well.

if i don't use EAC cause feeling lazy, i just use itunes for mp3's which seems to work well.

and for when i used to make audio cd's from mp3's i used to use nero to crossfade the tracks. that worked well.



all i can say, thank god for polio! brian
