EAC, cdparanoia etc are useful if you have scratched discs. At least you know when you're not getting a perfect rip.
However, in my own tests unscratched discs have always been read bit perfectly. So for unscratched discs I consider it unnecessary (and I consider myself pedantic about these things). I hope my point is clear; of course, there is nothing wrong with using EAC, cdparanoia etc if you want.
