Hi. I don't want to copy tracks to a cd, but just rip them from the cd. Once I have the resulting mp3 files, I will probably transfer them to my book sense. I would use iTunes to do this, but it will then put the resulting mp3 files into my music library forcing me to search for and remove them. Under windows, I could use gold wave or easy CDA extractor, but I'm not sure there is anything equivalent on the mac.
