Hi Folks,

Just wondering if there's an equivalent to EAC for Mac OSX. I know they didn't release one, but what is the preferred software for you Mac users?

I have a few things I want to rip and share with all of you, but want to make sure I'm using the preferred methods, settings, etc.

I'm currently using XLD for everything. Anyone have any suggestions for something better?

Regards,

Dan

I've been using XLD for some times and it works just fine. I think Foobar also does a good job but I am used to XLD.
To FLAC also does the job but does not create logs.
