RipOff- Rip audio from your CDs


'RipOff' is a simple GTK based audio cd ripper for ubuntu.It can rip cds in proprietary as well as open-source formats.'RipOff' is pretty similar to some other applications like 'Asunder' and the 'Audio CD Extractor'.Ripping off tracks in the popular MP3 format can be a daunting task for a new Linux/Ubuntu user.


'Rip Off' makes this pretty simple.Although Mp3 support is present by default,it can be added by installing the 'rip-off-mp3' plugin from the 'Synaptic Package Manager' of ubuntu 8.10.



'RipOff' provides the usual CDDB lookup feature.Tags can also be edited manually before ripping.To choose the output format, click on the 'Edit' menu and choose the desired plugin under the 'Plugins' tab.To choose the bit rate specifications, click on the 'Preferences' button.
Under the 'Input/Output' tab,you can select the track name format and and the output folder (Click on the 'Save' button' to choose a new location).
