Degrees of quality.My daughter got hold of an audio cd and scratched it all up. Thinking it would be for the trash, I nevertheless gave it a shot and cleaned it and put it in my stereo's cd player; to my surprise, nary a skip!
I thought I'd best back it up so I tried ripping it with cdparanoia to encode to flac, but it just hangs with all sorts of problems.
So, why the diff? Any way to rip it from my stereo's cd? (Technics SL-PG480A)

You can copy any old quality if you want, and some programmes like resound can even have a go at repairing the damage, to a degree, but in the end the better the quality of sound reporduction equipement the more demanding the quality of original recording has to be and I guess cdparanoia is trying to do a decent job for you. If my memory serves me correctly you tell cdparanoia to ignor or lessen the measure of quality demanded, or was that only in grip.
