cdparanoia

cdparanoia

cdparanoia is a Compact Disc Digital Audio (CDDA) Digital Audio Extraction (DAE) tool.

This software reads digital audio directly from a CD (with no analog step between), then writes the data to a file or pipe in WAV, AIFC or raw 16 bit linear PCM format.

It was designed to be a minimalistic, high-quality CD ripper to compensate for and adjust to poor hardware to produce a flawless rip.

cdparanoia's strength lies in its ability to handle a variety of hardware, including inexpensive drives prone to misalignment, frame jitter and loss of streaming during atomic reads. cdparanoia is also good at reading and repairing data from damaged CDs.

The Paranoia library, libparanoia, is the standard CD ripping library in KDE and GNOME.
