No Option to Rip CDs

<< < (2/2)

BryanC:
One workaround is to use virtualization and pass through the CD drive to a guest Windows client for ripping (you'll also want to share a folder between the guest/host or use Samba).

vdidenko:
In many cases, it is good enough to copy tracks off of a CD as .wav files and then convert them in JRiver MC.

On Linux, I have used K3B with relatively good results. Ripping is fast and sounds great with the requisite options for choosing compression level if your chosen output is *.flac. There are other options including ogg vorbis.  I used to use MediaMonkey in Windows to rip disks until Microsoft ridiculously eliminated my  2 1/2 year-old Kaby Lake processor from their Windows 11 "allowed list. " I have since divorced myself from Windows completely. If you use Windows, Media Monkey or Foobar2000 are good rippers.
