CD DA XTractor

Fast, lightweight and free CD ripper to digitally extract audio from CD-rom. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CD-DA X-Tractor is a lightweight, fast, and free program for digitally extracting audio from CD-roms. If the CD-rom unit on your computer supports Digital Audio Extraction and has an ASPI manager installed, CD-DA X-Tractor can directly read the audio from your music CD-roms and store it on your hard drive in either WAV, MP3 or Ogg Vorbis format.

For MP3 encoding, the BladeEncoder DLL and LAME Encoder DLLs are both supported. It works on most all ATAPI (IDE) CD-roms, and on some SCSI and CD-R/RW devices.

CD-DA X-Tractor is based on a small, command-line ripper called AKRip, meaning it is fast and small.

Here are some key features of "CD DA XTractor":
Supports the Ogg Vorbis codec! Ogg Vorbis is a new patent-free, open-source audio compression codec.
NT/2000: One of the first rippers to support NT/2000 natively -- no ASPI manager needed!
MP3: Can encode to MP3 using the BladeEnc encoder DLL. Simply download and copy BladeEnc.dll into the same folder where you installed CD-DA X-Tractor.
LAME support: can also use the LAME_ENC dll! You can download it either as source code or you can use the precompiled binary from CDEx.
"On-the-fly" encoding: Like its predecessor AKRip, CD-DA X-Tractor doesn't need to create an intermediate WAV file before encoding to MP3, but rather encodes directly to MP3.
Segment ripping: Can rip multiple tracks as a single track, or just a section of a single track
Jitter correction: Multiple modes for jitter correction, allowing custom settings for CD-rom units of different quality.
CDDB support
ID3v1 tagging: ID3v1 tags are a method of storing the artist's name, album name, track name, year, and genre in an MP3 file. Most MP3 player available today support ID3v1.
Source Code: Don't like something about CD-DA X-Tractor? Just curious, and want to see how it works? Full source code to the program is available under the GNU Public License.
Multithreaded: The read and encode process is multithreaded, allowing for maximum effeciency while reading and encoding to MP3.
Disables Autoplay and Autorun for CD's inserted while the program is running.
