This isn't how AccurateRip works.  It compares the checksum with others
around the world using the software.

The odds of the same bit in error between two different discs on
different PCs with different drives are astronomical.

Even with the same disc on the same drive, it's only very, very rarely
that you get the same -exact- error at the same exact spot.  Otherwise
EAC would always be full of errors because it's re-reading the portion
with errors.  This isn't the case - AccurateRip verifies that the rips
are OK when EAC does.  Only 1 or 2 of the 500 discs I've ripped
indicate a disagreement between EAC and AccurateRip, so it's possible
but rare.
