MPyRe (Music Python Ripper) is a Python front- end to cdparanoia, LAME, Musepack, and Ogg Vorbis and FLAC encoders. It has support ID3 and APEv2 tagging.

Here are some key features of "MPyRe":
Reads the CDDB server and grabs disc info
Rips the CD with CDParanoia in secure ripping mode
Encodes the Wav files to MP3
Adjusts output levels with replaygain (MP3gain for MP3s)
Writes ID3v1 and Apev2 tags to MP3 Files
Renames the files to match the track # and song title

Requirements:
Linux 2.6.9 Kernel with ATAPI CDROM drivers
Python 2.3
Cdparanoia III 9.8 http://www.xiph.org/paranoia
Lame Mp3 Encoder v3.96.1 http://lame.sourceforge.net/
CDDB-Py Python Module http://cddb-py.sourceforge.net/
Py-Apev2tag Python Module http://sourceforge.net/projects/pylibape/
Mp3gain http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/

What's New in This Release:
Added support for CDDB query strings. Now if a cd lookup fails you will know
why. A cd will still fail if it doesn't have a unique CDDB ID.
Added support for Ogg Vorbis, Flac, and Musepack. These encoders haven't
been tested but you can by editing the encoder encoderArgs and encoderExt
variables in the first part of the script. You'll need vorbisgain for Ogg
Vorbis and replaygain for musepack.
Added calculation of md5 digest, digest file writing is still broken, take a
look at the code and tell me what is wrong, please.
