I'm using music match jukebox to rip my cds but i think that it exist better solution and have a better quality
I've tried EAC but the file is twice the size than with MMJB.
What is the best solution (best sound quality) to rip cds (i want a bitrate around 128, and i don't want a full cd to take more than 80MB)

128kbps is too low for hi-fi playback. It is suitable for portable devices and similar with limited storage capacity. Settings --alt-preset standard are very good and give you around 192kbps files in average. If you want 128kbps then I recommend --alt-preset 128

I'm ripping like 200 cds because i'm leaving home and i don't want to take all my cds with me
I don't have enough space on my hdd to put them all in 192, 128 is a good compromise

Would other format than MP3 do? OGG Vorbis should perform better on low bitrates. You could use for example -q 5 or something.

Get the commandline OGG Vorbis encoder and put the .EXE file to EAC directory. Then switch EAC compression to use OGG and start testing with different Q values.

Other way: Rip CDs to WAV files, get OGGDrop, drag & drop files to OGGDrop. Play around with various Q values to satisfy you quality/size needs.

All software is found on this site.
