I am wanting to download various track from my CD's onto my PC into various play lists . Then I wish to transfer them onto a micro SD card so I can play them on my new Android Tablet. I have read about Real Player on another Forum but you do not appear to able to transfer them from this site onto a SD Card. Groove music has also been mentioned but again downloads are not possible. I am looking for a free app where you are not required to give your credit card details like both Google Play and I Tunes require, even though they inform you will not be charged. I have no intention of purchasing any music so is there such a free safe app that could fulfil my above requirements. I have more than enough of my own CD's which is all the recorded music that I am going to need. Any suggestions and/or advise on this subject will be really appreciated.

You need an audio ripper to "rip" the audio streams off the CDs and convert them into computer files. Then you can transfer them to your tablet via the micro-SD.
The best audio ripper is EAC (Exact Audio Copy). It's focussed on getting the best quality rip, even from CDs that don't play normally.

The first thing to decide is in which file format you want to rip the audio? WAV, FLAC, OGG, MP3, MP4...0 -
Groove music is shutting down as far as I'm aware. And iTunes doesn't need your CC details. The iTunes Store might (I still think you can get round that) but if you're just ripping, it'll work without signing in or giving CC details. If you sign in you can download the CD details automatically instead of typing it in and finding artwork yourself.0
