    Because EAC has problems with some CD drives but fre:ac does not. There is no alternative nearly as good as fre:ac.

    Rubyripper is a digital audio extraction algorithm that uses cdparanoia error correcting power and it's own secure ripping algorithm to make sure that a CD rip is done successfully and accurately. It is very similar to and inspired by EAC.
