Nero and ImgBurn
Something command line based on Linux that produced mp3. I don’t remember the name.
cdparanoia?
cdparanoia, then later abcde, which uses cdparanoia.
Whoa. Blast from the past.
My only objection is '00’s
Infants
Alcohol 120%
Nice, that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time!
CloneCD
Winamp. Still do.
I didn’t rip CDs but I did use StreamRipper, which was created by my officemate at the time, Jon Clegg (not the British comedian). To avoid getting sued into bankruptcy he eventually had to dissociate himself from the software after record industry lawyers sent him C&D letters - which I just now found online, holy crap! We were working together as contractors at Microsoft at the time. He was a very clever and cool guy. Hope you’re out there still kicking ass, Jon!
Every time I think back I picture Winamp in head. And sure enough I looked it up and Winamp could rip tracks and the UI is exactly what I remember
So: Winamp
cdparanoia. Still do.
Since nobody else has said it yet - that’s before my time. I’ll ask my folks.
Imgburn. Those were good times.
Started with Music Match Jukebox that came on an install CD with my first ever MP3 player, then windows media player 10 came out. Eventually I learned about FLAC so I re-ripped everything with EAC
i remember acidrip. i remember it was a gtk program, written in some interpreted language: perl or python.
No idea. Whatever was the kde standard at the time I suppose.
I do remember feeding the online cd database though, back when it was still a group effort, before some asshole stole all of the data (same with the imdb on Usenet).
Not old enough to answer the question, but I used iTunes when I was a wee lad. Now I use Exact Audio Copy.
