RipIT is used to create MPEG-1 Layer 3 (mp3), Flac (flac) or Ogg Vorbis (ogg) audio files from an audio CD and from version 3.4 also faac (m4a). RipIT is a console based front-end (no fancy GUI here), written in perl, for these excellent programs:

dagrab, cdparanoia or cdda2wav (tosha and cdd are also supported) for ripping the audio CD tracks (I don't know if dagrab is still up to date..., but it's COOL!)
Lame, OggVorbis, Flac or Faac for encoding the wav files to mp3, ogg, flac or m4a (find some info and links)
CDDB_get (perl module) for CDDB retrieval (info and links).

Here are some key features of "RipIT":
Gets the Audio CD Album/Artist/Tracks information from CDDB
Rips the Audio CD Tracks
Encodes to flac, mp3 or ogg
id3 tags encoded songs
Creates an playlist (m3u) file
Can prepare and send a CDDB submission.

What's New in This Release:
This release can rip and encode several CDs without interruption with the option --loop, and normalize the output level with the option --normalize.
A man page has been added.
