I believe it's basically up to your CD ROM drive - all the acd driver does is ask it for track info, I don't believe it does anything special to the data. FWIW I use dd if=/dev/acd0tX bs=2352 to make my mp3's and it has never made a bad one yet (with a 52x Mitsubishi and a 24x TEAC laptop CDROM). Admittedly all my CD's are basically archival and once I rip them I almost never play them again, but IMHO new drive are perfectly capable of reading audio without too much hassle. -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 9A8C 569F 685A D928 5140 AE4B 319B 41F4 5D17 FDD5 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
