After having not bought any CDs for a while (in the run up to Christmas, Jen gets annoyed with me if I buy anything for myself, in case she had it in mind as a present), I've just splashed some cash at Amazon.

So, I need to get these CDs ripped and onto my empeg.

Ordinarily, I'd use EAC, but it doesn't work with the DVD writer in my Windows box. Neither does RMM, my second choice. There appears to be a compatibility problem with the nVidia IDE drivers and the drive. It works fine for everything else, so I'm not too bothered.

So, I'm going to have to use Linux. I've used grip in the past and, frankly, it sucked. Using cdparanoia from the command line is too much like hard work.

Can anyone recommend a good ripping application for Linux?

It must be able to (at a minimum):

  • Download the track list from CDDB/FreeDB.
  • Rip to WAV, naming the files accordingly.


Suggestions?
