ripping software

[Kevin D. Clark]

Recently I wanted to rip some of my CDs to mp3 format.  Being a
"command-line" sort of person, and also being impatient, I wondered
"hasn't anybody created a command-line utility to rip CD'S to mp3's
that is smart enough to know about CDDB?".

Perhaps this is a silly question, perhaps everybody and their brother
has a great method for doing this and I am ignorant.  Anyways, I
quickly found a program that does exactly what I want.  The name of
the program is...unfortunate, but I can't complain about the results:

The fact this this program is written in Perl is a nice bonus,
methinks.  (-:



Anyways, I just wanted to let other people know about this useful
program. 

Regards,
