Rip CD

[Dolby]

I just bought the new Parlotones album and trying to rip it for backup - but WMP keeps telling me it cannot access the file.

Is it possible it's protected and, if so, how would I get around it?

Can you make a full image of the disk using Nero (for example)?

 

[Gezza]

download it for backup

 

[Dolby]

I don't have Nero - what else could I use to try?

Difficult to download South African music, and in the quality I want

Use winamp rip to mp3 and save space :/

 

[Gezza]

Ok true. there is a way you can record it but its a mission. using adobe audition. jippo the mic to go to the audio in type thing. its too late and im too drunk to explain

Total Vidoe Converter. Rip audio CD's with protection.

Easy cd-da extractor is the way too go. 30 day free trial though. But it will work. You can rip to mp3 or whatever you like. I HATE WMA though, but i guess it can extract to that as well.

You can also try dBpoweramp

And you haven't tried EAC?

 

[Dolby]

Never tried anything barring WMP, which worked perfect for me!

I'll give some of these a shot - thanks!

Hehe, then I'm afraid you've been doing it wrong all along. Get EAC, I'll send you the config files for FLAC and mp3 to make your life easier.

I ripped Stardust Galaxies twice, with Itunes and Windows MP without hassles.
