Ripping w/dbpoweramp or JRiver

Planning to download dbpoweramp and use it to rip my cd library and download JRiver to play the files; but according to the JRiver website, I can use it to rip. Is dbpoweramp the better ripper and JRiver the better player? Of course, I'm trying to maximize the SQ of my music files (which I intend to save as AIFF).

Have a PC with Windows 7. Just downloaded trial version of dbpoweramp, but really struggling with it. I had no trouble with iTunes, but thinking this could drive me to an early grave.

Lewinski01 - thanks much for pointing me to the ripping guide. Very informative and helpful. Will start ripping my cd library tomorrow morning.

Mastered basics of dbpoweramp and ready to re-rip my 600 cd library and replace music files that I lost. Wife blames loss on recent iTunes upgrade. Don't know; but can't find the files. So, re-ripping in AIFF using dbpoweramp and saving on new external HD. Hoping to buy Bryston BDP-1 & BDA-1 to replace Arcam FMJ 23T player and eliminate need to load/unload little silver (and gold) discs. Am I getting lazy? Yep!
