Mp3 faq - copy tracks from an audio CD

What do I need to copy tracks from an audio CD?

To copy tracks from an audio CD you need a CD Ripper program. Such programs are also sometimes called DAC programs (Digital Audio Conversion). A large number of these programs are available for downloading on a variety of web sites.
The WinDAC32 CD ripper, downloadable from mp3.com, works well.

Depending on the speed of your CD-ROM drive and your computer, CD Rippers can operate faster than real-time. For example, a track which normally lasts three and a half minutes might only take thirty seconds to be copied to your hard disk.
