Thanks all for the feedback on CD Rippers. I have downloaded trial
versions of all the ones suggested and given them a spin out (except
GRIP, which still sounds like the daddy!). I was playing with CDEx,
setting up auto track naming when I thought "That looks familiar..>" a
quick trip back to MP3 Producer, and sure enough, if I'd rtfm I'd have
realised that it had the features I wanted all along. To be fair, it's a
little bizzare in the configuration required, but nonetheless I am now
able to put the CD in, click on the freedb lookup and click on start and
it automatically creates the Artist\Album\Trackname.mp3 that I wanted.
So thanks again, it was worth the effort, I've ripped 30 CDs already
today!

John,
I have tried them all. Started with Music Match, and then went to CDEX
to move to Lame. When I moved to Linux, I fell in love with Grip. The
"batch mode" ripping is great! I have yet to find a Windows tool that
will decouple the rip from the encoding. This is a great feature, since
I can queue up many CDs (ripping is faster than encoding) and then just
let the MP3 encoding with Lame run overnight.
