I've never ripped CDs with Winamp! But don't you have to have the "pro"
version to do this anyway?

Most of the CDs I've ripped with Winamp are not ones you can find in
mainstream stores, but Winamp was able to find the info for them. Gracenotes
seems to know almost everything I throw at it, even obscure limited edition
electronic music CDs. It's very seldom it doesn't know what a CD is, and I
have a lot of stuff from genres that you won't find in mainstream stores.
Nowadays though, I avoid buying physical CDs whenever I can and simply buy
downloadable versions. I only buy physical CDs when I absolutely have to to
get something I really want.

I think the reason I find that some of my CDs don't get found in the CD
Databases is that they are not usually things available in mainstream
retail stors.

Yep, I use my iPhone but there's no reason why you can't use something
else, I'm sure Barcode Reading pacages are available for Windows too.

Sorry, forgot to mention in my last message how I get CD information, I
just look up the barcode on the back of the CD, from that I get the
information and I can manipulate as required, enter it into Music Brains
or any other database, enter it into my Ripper directly etc.

Gracenote is still quite good, though, but thanks, Dane, for the hint.
I'll
check out Music Brains.
Take care,

Gracenote is past history mate, there are other database services for CD
organisation around which do a better job.
Once upon a not so long ago, Gracenote was good because every CD entry
made
into the database was checked but the Gracenote database wasn't free to
use
like it is now thus no checking is done any longer.
The later CD ripping software such as Easy CD DA Extractor or Easy CD
Converter - whatever its called these days -, Max and others use Music
Brains.

I would try a different ripper altogether like CDex or free mp3 ripper,
google is your friend for that. I never ever use media player in fact I
avoid it like the black death.

Subject: Problem Ripping A CD
Hello List: Am currently trying to rip a CD that I bought the other
night
at a concert; am using Windows Media to rip the CD (the CD appears to
be
ripping) however it says "pending for all of the tracks and has been a
good
while since it has changed! Does this mean that this CD cannot be
ripped?
I really am not sure of what is going on here! Am running the latest
version of Jaws 15 with Windows 7; should I stop the rip and start
over?
Just would like to know what is taking so long! In older versions of
Windows Media, if it wasn't going to rip, it would just pop the door
open
and that was that!
