What platform? On Mac OS X, "Max" is what you need.

Not sure about PCs I'm afraid.

I find XLD better for FLAC -> MP3, but I do use Max for ripping to FLAC in the first place.

FLAC is a pretty good compromise between size, quality and licence; is there a workaround to avoid converting it to some compressed format?

Not tried XLD, thanks for the tip.

Easy CD-DA Extractor is the daddy for Windows.

Extracts CD's directly to FLAC or any other format if you want, and can transcode files to any format from FLAC or any other.

Excellent.

that's the ticket. Simple drag 'n drop, then run conversion and Bob's your mother's brother.
Really useful program there, thanks Peter.
