Turbo said:I promise I don't work for these guys. I've just been using this program for years without any problems. You purchase it once and get free upgrades for life. You can rip a CD to flac or any other format quite easily. You can also convert just about any audio format to any other audio format.

Seems to work well apart from the fact it rips as wav first and then converts that to flac.
Now the stupid question :
As I'm not too clued-up about all these different formats, will that result in an uncompressed file?
(You need to choose "compress" to get it to convert to flac or it stays as a wav file). ???
Sorry to sound dumb but I've always ripped at 128 mp3 but we are more demanding here now so, should any CDs go out of print, I'd sooner upload them in as high a quality as possible.
