Rippid CD Audio WITHOUT iTunes - chopper - 08-30-2014 Trying very hard now to avoid using iTunes for anything as it seems to not make anything more simple to use ... regardless, does anyone have a good solution for ripping CD audio on the Mac without iTunes? Re: Rippid CD Audio WITHOUT iTunes - clay - 08-30-2014 XLD is one that I think people use http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/23430/x-lossless-decoder I personally just use iTunes, so I can't maybe give you the best recommendations. Here's another link I found about iTunes alternates for ripping CDs: http://www.macworld.com/article/1158059/four_reasons_rip_cds_without_itunes.html Re: Rippid CD Audio WITHOUT iTunes - norteamericano - 08-30-2014 Why not use that super simple software your using in place of iTunes? Assuming you found one of course. I have yet to figure out what everyone hates so much about iTunes. Re: Rippid CD Audio WITHOUT iTunes - Filliam H. Muffman - 08-30-2014 I haven't upgraded iTunes in a while, so I can't say I am up to date on the hate. It used to be pretty much everything... except using it to rip CD's. RealPlayer used to be what I would recommend, but it is now RealCloud and almost as annoying as iTunes for harvesting user information on everything on your hard drive.

Re: Rippid CD Audio WITHOUT iTunes - N-OS X-tasy! - 08-30-2014 I use XLD. Max is another option, but it's always been hit-or-miss for me (functionality, not rip quality). Re: Rippid CD Audio WITHOUT iTunes - sekker - 09-01-2014 I have no trouble with iTunes ripping music. It's the lost interface I mind. I'm still appalled that I cannot sort and see music using what used to be standard interface options. |
