I have discovered an excellent audio player and ripper/encoder. It also includes CD burning with a volume leveller which means you can say goodbye to the days of one track sounding louder than the other after burning CD's from file. Best thing is it's totally free (and no spyware). Get it from here: http://download.com.com/3000-2141-10222583.html?tag=lst-0-1

1. Have you already tried it? If yes - can you tell how the "volume leveller" works - is it just normalizing or is it rater something like replaygain / MP3gain? Is dither applied on volume changes?

2. It uses Nero for burning. So if you want to use it for burning it's not exactly free.

3. Is there anything else than volume leveler feature that justifies the "excellent" ranking? What software did you compare it with?

Yes I have tried it. It uses replay gain standard and is quite effective. I have always used WMP 9 because it has everything all in one and it also has some kind of leveller in it because you can compare it to burning directly with Nero (which I don't really recommend). I find burning with MediaMonkey produces the best results. I have used Winamp too and other players but they don't have all the features of MediaMonkey and ussually no burning option. You have four options when displaying audio files; by artist, album, genre or year and media info is automatically obtained from Freedb. You can also create playlists easily and quickly and it will convert any audio file to either WMA, MP3, OGG-Vorbis or WAV in one click. The only negative are the limited choice of non-animated skins but you can intergrate Winamp skins with it if you want.

Thanks for the info. Sounds nice (especially replaygain feature which is way better than normalizing). I prefer good (the best if possible) software specialized for 1 purpose over all-in-one but from what you tell this program seems to be a good choice.
