a nice way to rip
so I got this network share at home and have been filling it up with stuff. I have been using only linux for my ipod shuffle. So I have been building up my mp3’s. I was doing the rather hard way for a while. Use sound converter to rip to ogg, then lame to convert to mp3. looked around for another way.
Used my windows VM for a while. It thinks the cd-rom in the ubuntu box is its own. I used WMP to rip to mp3, felt guilty about it. So in linux I am using two different ones.
KAudioCreator a pretty GUI one with sounds to let you know its progress.
but my favorite is abcde, it is a nifty little CLI program.
me happy now 
Easy fix. Open up Sound Juicer and create a new profile.
Profile Name: MP3
Description: Mpeg Layer 3
Gstreamer Pipeline: audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc vbr=false bitrate=192 ! id3mux
File Extension: mp3
And tick the “Active?” box. Now you can rip to MP3. If you want a lower bitrate, just change the “bitrate” argument.
Thanks to somebody on Ubuntuforums.org for this.
