Hi

I'm looking for recommendations on software to use to rip CDs to a NAS.

I''ve tried using Exact Audio Copy but not very successfully.

Any recommendations ?

Thanks

    If you want quality, you should choose one of the formats like FLAC, or possibly APE. Wave are often huge.

    What and why was it not very successful?

    I've always used the 'RIP CD' function in Windows Media Player and selected 'Highest Quality MP3' from the menu and been perfectly satisfied with the results. I like it when my existing software does something useful like that and avoids me having to download yet more dodgy utilities to clog up my hard drive. :D
