Oops, forgot I posted this.

Thanks for the thought of using EAC. Unfortunately, I've already ripped my 6 days worth of CD's using AudioCatalyst 2. I knew better and was told not to, but it was the most simple solution at the time and I liked how it handled naming conventions.

I'll use EAC to rip my (few) new CD's since my last ripping batch 2 years ago.

And Tony, yes, the high's on my rips sound bad thanks to Xing. Too bad half of my CD's are classical and jazz. Violins and jazz drum kits sound terrible on MP3. Oh well, too bad my foolish CD ripping goal was "Hey, just get them on the hard drive for casual / quick reference use. I'll still use the CD's for real listening." Hah, CD's are so last millennium.
