I’ve used this for many years. Excellent software.

I've always used EAC for ripping and Fre:ac for transcoding the ripped FLAC files into other formats, usually mp3, when needed. It does a good job at transcoding.

How does it compare to EAC?

[–] remington@beehaw.org 1 points 1 day ago

No idea. I haven't heard of EAC until now.
