I wrote a brief how-to for ripping from audio CD to Ogg Vorbis: http://logicsquad.net/freebsd/audio-rip-how-to.html It includes automatic download of the track list, transforming the XML received and adding the appropriate metadata to each track. It could be automated further---suggestions welcome. -- Paul. mailto:paulh@logicsquad.net mailto:phoadley@maths.adelaide.edu.au
