Hi list, short question: is CDparanoia still the standard for ripping / encoding music? (xiph.org/paranoia was last updated in 2001) more rambling: I want to protect my cd collection from destruction and make use of an older computer by outfitting it with a large hard disk and devote it to storing my music collection. I want to make a script that more or less automatically rips a CD to my preferences. So I want a command line CD ripper. The "grand" vision: to eventually make a low res GUI that displays on a small LCD or TV to rip music and navigate the music library. Specifically what i would want is to have attractive buttons that call other programs and some sort of basic file browser capability. What do you think would be the smartest (easiest) language and packages to do this with? my thanks, Greg
