Google ads. Oh well, only moderately annoying, and I guess better than making it shareware. Although, along with the ads, you'd think they'd add a way to close the info window. You'd think, and you'd be wrong.

But despite these two quibbles, this remains a free and easy way to get your CDs into the smallest and best sounding ogg format. So, it still gets used by me.

if it does what it advertises. there is no opensource freeware solution that you can install for osx that doesn't require a phd in computer science except this one. i don't know how to use freedb, at least on 1.0b4 it is not working automatically and there doesn't appear to be a button for it. I also am having trouble with the download for 1.0, because i am getting "failed to mount" errors on my g4. oh well, i guess i have to keep using windows to rip my cds, buggers.
