I've recently revived an original clamshell iBook which has something my modern MacbookPro lacks: a CD drive. This has given me an idea: ripping CD's with my iBook and bringing them over to my newer computer.
Is there a piece of free software for classic Mac OS which is capable of ripping lossless audio files from CD's for free ?
Best Answer
As far as I remember (AFAIR), no extra software is required to rip audio CDs lossless in Mac OS 9. You can simply open the CD and use the Finder to copy the music files to the hard disk.
The final data format is AIFF.
This probably won't work for copy protected audio CDs (non-Red Book).
