Beta is just fine. Works better than "stable" Windows does :-D

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Audio Catalyst. Yeah its a bit old but its uses Lame encoding, has a nice CDDB button you can hit to fill in all the track names, and ripping your entire CD to one giant MP3 like you pointed out you wanted to do is a snap. Its so straightforward and works perfectly, I've never needed anything else.

Originally posted by [PCO]sigmanova sorry to say but all the replies are wrong... there is a FREE, and excellent way to back up your music in mp3 format use the EAC/LAME combination EAC (exactaudiocopy) is a program that can rip your cd's into waves securely...its the best ripping program for free, hands down, no argument LAME is the best free mp3 encoder around...fairly fast, and because its open source and optimized and tested by audiophiles, its good i'm not sure if it's okay to post links...so here it is www.exactaudiocopy.de for a FREE copy of EAC for the LAME codec, you can find it here: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?showtopic=478& the rest of hydrogenaudio has a grip of mp3 related stuff...so if you need more help, i can write a quick tutorial here for you...but hands down this is the best FREE combination out there...and i personally use it to rip music i own =) later
