Multi-drive Ripping / Burning Support?

Posted by pudge on from the ripping-for-dummies dept.

jasonisnuts writes "I currently have a DVD-ROM (internal), a CD-RW (FW), and a DVD-RW (FW), and I also have a massive assortment of music CDs that I want to rip and catalog. Are there any free, shareware, or commercial utilities for Mac OS X that support ripping CDs from multiple devices at the same time and offer full CDDB/GraceNote support? And does this same utility or another offer burning to multiple sources in multiple formats? This will all be done on a Sawtooth 500MHz (upgrading soon)."

    "executeable"

    Looks like Windows users are lending their support.

    That should be read as 'Old not equal bad'. Yes, I'll preview next time.

    That's what *you* get for being a VB developer... the rest of us would have just used != which even Slashdot understands.

    Dude, you picked the *wrong* part of Slashdot to complain about "fruit salad" Mozilla-like GUIs. This is apple.slashdot.org . Apple, as in, like, Mac, as in, pin-stripes, candy coloured close/minimise/maximise buttons, as in, 'lickable' GUI. Enough of us are upset that Panther's shoving brushed metal and dark title bars down our throats.

    So as a quick run-down on where the right place is to talk about what with GUIs:

    slashdot.org - Talk about GUIs some here. Some people will love you and some people will hate you. Although talking about looking like a 'actual windows app' isn't necessarily a plus, mostly because you'll get lots of jokes about how real windows apps mostly just look like a BSOD.

    bsd.slashdot.org - Talk about how you hate GUIs and you think all mice, especially the digital kind, are infestations.

    apple.slashdot.org - Just repeat what Jobs said. Talk about how good blue scrolling bars look. And never, ever put the word 'right' before 'click'.

    You can rip multiple albums. I have a PC and a Mac and to save time I installed iTunes on the PC and used it to also rip albums.
