Best CD to FLAC software and FLAC playback software
I searched the archives and the most recent posts are from 2009-10. Those posts recommended JRiver and DB PowerAmp. Has anything changed since then or are they still highly rated?
dBpoweramp is great ripping software I've used it to rip my entire cd collection to flac. I don't use JRiver so can't comment but highly recommend dBpoweramp it's fantastic software and dirt cheap.
I've been using Exact Audio Copy to rip CD's to FLAC. Not sure if that's the best one, but been pretty reliable when I copied CD's. Never thought I would rip my entire collection, but my "archival grade" Taiyo Yuden are having disc rot.
I also use EAC, mainly because it tests and error checks the disc before burning it onto the hard drive. Takes a long time though (around 10 minutes per disk).
I looked at EAC, but it doesn't seem to carry over the artwork and track info like DBpoweramp. If I ripped with EAC, can DB be used to insert the above mentioned info to the ripped disc, afterward?
