It's interesting to see this new religeous war starting. I recently purchased dbPowerAmp for its transcoding prowess. I like that fact that it will allow me to delete the source file once trancoding has been done on a file. I don't know of any other general purpose transcoders that will do this. The GUI is also extremely intuitive. I like the batch mode and how it reports errors on input files.
I'm an EAC user and have been using it for the last 7 years (wow, it's been that long!). I tried the dbPowerAmp ripper and it looks really good. The AMG integration is pretty cool. But, I've been using EAC for so long and it works for me, so I'm continuing to use it. One area of difference that I noticed was with ripping to non-WAV formats. If you rip directly to something other than WAV (e.g. FLAC), EAC has a great mechanism for encoding on the fly. It will encode in the background while conintuing to rip the disc. You can even put in a new disc while encoding of the previous one completes. Even if the PC crashes (which has happened to me), EAC remembers what it was doing and will pick up where it left off when the machine comes back up. I think it basically comes down to personal preference. -- maggior ------------------------------------------------------------------------ maggior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43394 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
