    Personally I use Jack.  However does anyone know if there is a front end
out there that will rip a track and use multiple encoders before
removing the wav?  The more I think of ripping my CDs the more I want 3
formats.

FLAC - For archival purposes.
OGG - High-bit for playing on my computer or through my stereo with a
set-top media player.
MP3 - Low-bit for my portable MP3 player.

    Of course if I could find a portable OGG player that would drop to 2 but
still, that's more than what most do right now.  Hmmm, might have to
hack Jack, it is in Python.  Hmmmm...
