CD-Rippers

CD rippers are used to take audio from a CD and transfer it to your computer as a WAV file. CD rippers are preferred over regular WAV programs, because WAV programs convert the audio to analog, and then back to digital (with a slight loss in quality), while CD rippers make an exact digital copy of the audio.

NOTE: Not all CD-ROM drives are compatible with CD ripping. Before downloading, check the CD-ROM Compatibility List to see if you have a compatible drive.
