What is your desktop? I converted a few hundred audio CDs years ago and with my KDE desktop I simply used k3b. You may want to explore what audio format you'd like to store them as. mp3, or an open format such as Vorbis audio. Of course you can always google "rip audio cd linux" and find plenty of suggestions, -- A motto of mine is: When in doubt, try it out
