Rip CD - which format?

In this article we explain which format you should use when ripping a CD.

CD ripping - this format makes sense

• It used to be said that you should use MP3 format for ripping CDs to save storage space.
• Unfortunately, there is always better quality these days, so it is not uncommon to choose a different format.
• We therefore recommend the format "FLAC", which means as much as "Free Lossless Audio Codec", in English about "Free lossless audio codec". This gives you the best sound quality currently available.
• Thanks to the free tool "Exact Audio Copy" you can rip CDs in FLAC format.
