Rip and encode CDs with one command Jack has been developed with one main goal: making MP3s or OGGs without having to worry. There is nearly no way that an incomplete rip goes unnoticed, e.g. jack compares WAV and OGG file sizes when continuing from a previous run. Jack also checks your HD space before doing anything (even keeps some MB free). Jack is different from other such tools in a number of ways: - it supports different rippers and encoders - it is very configurable - it doesn't need X - it can \"rip\" virtual CD images like the ones created by cdrdao - when using cdparanoia, cdparanoia's status information is displayed for all tracks, so you can see if something went wrong - it uses sophisticated disk space management, i.e. it schedules it's ripping/ encoding processes depending on available space. - freedb query, file renaming and id3 tagging - it can resume work after it has been interrupted. If all tracks have been ripped, it doesn't even need the CD anymore, even if you want to do a freedb query. - it can do a freedb query based on OGGs alone, like if you don't remember from which CD those OGGs came from. - freedb submissions
