Best Method for Automated CD Ripping?

OzPeter asks: "I have a need to rip about 200-300 CDs in the near future, and I am not looking forward to being a slave to the computer every 4 minutes in order to change the CD in the drive. I have been looking around for automated ripping systems but in general have not been impressed by what I found. This question was asked, 4 years ago, and the best advice to come out of it seemed to be to hire a local teenager to be that slave. Have things improved, or does the advice given in that article still stand? What is currently the best way of automatically ripping a significant number of CDs?"

    Offer a local teen $150 + pizza for a day's work, and they'll jump at the chance.

    Or you could offer a local graduate student just the pizza, and save yourself $150.

    Or just gladly promise pizza on Tuesday for a ripping job today.
