EAC -Exact Audio Copy- , free, with the most 'strict' settings, which i think can be found online. If you dont find them i ll send you when i find some time, soon, let me know, message me.
If EAC aborts cause of error, unable to extract the exact audio, then dBpoweramp -not free i think, but cracked versions are everywhere, at your own risk- , which is a good compromise with the right settings. Which are they ? These are my recipe and not that i have concluded cause i rarely use it. Sure you can find similar settings online. Mine are See and do type. ie: to read a faulty sector 20 times and select the most appeared result.
Keep in mind a CD or CDR that it cant be ripped perfectly due to some bad sectors, it will probably play just fine on a player, maybe with a glitch. But it also happened to me the rip to sound perfect and the playback to get stuck in a point and to have to FF 20 sec ahead to resume normal playback.
Thank you! I might try one of these once my program kicks the bucket (or I get tired of squinting at the micro-text on my screen).
