I used to use Zlurp, but they haven't updated the product in a long time.

These days, I'm using Windows Media Player (ugh).

I use MusicMatch


also, for copy protected audio, you need a drive that can read it, and I use the Lite-On 40x burner for that

for music, EAC for ripping and LAME to encode. dont know if it will do copy protected music cd's. read up (http://www.r3mix.net)

i tried eac and it ripped the song said there was errors then when lame went to encode it the file was only 19 seconds long. i will try the others. have u guys ever heard of dbpoweramp...my friend said that was pretty good

:stupid: but dont know if i've ever come across copy-protected music cd's yet.

i use itunes :)

the only copy protected audio cd i have come across is the free fast and furious one from a deal awhile back. the tape trick allows that to be played without any problems

[showing ignorance] Okay, I have to ask: what tape trick? [/showing ignorance]

some cds from sony can be "hacked" by covering the extra data track on cd. this track is about 1/8th of an inch from the last audio track. a noticable gap can be seen when looking at the cd. You can also cover this track with a magic marker. i prefer the tape, since its not physically damaging the cd like a marker could.
