Well, people do as they please, I'm stating some facts as I've seen them and as the author of Exact Audio Copy has reported them so you take it? Or you leave it, simple as that, that's one of the reasons why EAC was rwritten in the first place because the author of same was sick to death of dodgy rips. Now if you want to further prove what I'm talking about here, rip a CD with say Easy CD DA Extractor and rip it as one single standard wave file and then d another rip, be sure to number them say rip1 and rip2. Now compare them and see what you get, you'll find that they're not exactly the same and they should be, after all they're from the same CD.

For example, as a rule, the Pioneer DVD drives have a read offset value of +48 and a write value of -18. On 22/11/2007, at 4:55 PM, Dana S.
