hey everyone,
just thought i would mention this to ya all, a producer of my favorite band recomendes musicmatch for ripping cds to mp3. now i know there has been alot of negative towards musicmatch but i got to take his word for ripping quality since he is a top producer in the rock/metal music. not trying to piss anyone off but i thought i would share this and also i cant tell at all the diffrence in quality when ripping a cd at alt preset standard and musicmatch 192kbs, and this is on a 700.00 sony home stereo system. so come to your own conclusions.

At 192kbps like bitrates lame is better for sure. If you want to test yourself no need for high-end equipment, only good headphones needed.
At http://www.ff123.net you'll find all you need to perform these kind of tests: Training for hearing artifacts, software for performing double blind tests (ABCHR), problem samples (taken from real music, also rock/metal) all mp3 encoders have audible problems with more or less - use them to find out yourself what sounds better to you.

ok no problem just want the best quality i can get have 300 cds ready to rip, could you maybe answer this for me why does e.a.c with lame 3.90 somtimes takes forever when ripping a cd? i somtimes have to do 5 tracks first then the next 5 or 6 cause it always stalls or takes over an hour to do one track. .04kbs is what i get. and why is the musicmatch encoder such crap/
