I agree there! My UltraPlex drive rips CDs at almost 20x, and using WinDAC, it will also rip directly into MP3 format. But I prefer ripping into.WAV files (it's faster) and then using MP3 Compressor which IMHO is quite configurable and allows for excellent quality. On my P2-350, MP3 compression occurs at about 1x in Windows.
