CD Ripping software


I am interested in ripping my CD collection to .WAV files. Not concerned about FLAC or other formats.

I know Windows Media Player will rip .WAV files from CD, but has anyone used dBpoweramp or EAC software instead? The rippers in this software have claimed advanced error detection strategies that I guess WIN MP does not have?

Would it not ber easier to pre-scan the CDs for C1/C2 errors in advance and use Win MP for simplicity?

Accuraterip is the best for extracting the data from the disk. The developer(s) who built it went the extra mile for perfect rips.

The problems I had before were skipping like sounds when playing back ripped content. That is now completely gone.

The skipping sound reproduced when ripping from Windows Media Player and iTunes (even with its option to fix the skips).

Choices of software that include Accuraterip:

Exact Audio Copy is great. Songbook was a complete non-starter on my Mac Book (Lion os) and was very dissapointing.
