Default CD ripper Make Rhythmbox as good as iTunes for CD import
My last CD-ripping experience went like this: Insert CD 1. Rip CD 1. Insert CD 2. Rip CD 2. Insert CD 3. Rip CD 3. ... Rip CD 6. Plug in MP3 player. Open the Music folder in Nautilus. Select the files to copy---GOD DAMN YOU RHYTHMBOX! WHY THE $@!^#@$%^#$% DID YOU OUTPUT .OGGs WITHOUT TELLING ME!?!... Insert CD 1. Re-rip CD 1...
So what should the default be? I personally rip everything as flac.
The default should be what we can legally ship with, which isn't mp3. .ogg is not a bad choice.
