Another best software to recover CDs on Mac is Ease US data recovery. Its free version can recover up to 2GB data. If you want to recover some common file formats such as Documents, Music and videos then it will be the best software. 2 GB limit is sufficient if you are looking for a tool to recover files from CD.

Common ripping issues

You can meet topic of the article too often at the forums and articles, like: 'the best cd ripping software 2020', 'the best cd ripper 2020', 'the best cd ripper for mac', 'the best cd ripper for windows', etc. The rippers are compared by perceived sound quality, functionality, metadata (song information: track name, album, performer, etc.) abilities, ripping speed and other.

However, in the author opinion, main feature of the best cd ripping software for audiophiles is exactness of copying CD's binary audio information to music files.

This feature is measurable. But the author don't know about studies, that available for public access.

A Safe CD ripper or secure CD ripper is the ripper software that have the binary-content-copying exactness as aim.

Read below:

sound quality issues;
how to provide the exactness and how it linked with ripping speed;

CD ripper sound quality

Quality of CD ripping is number of broken bytes in the ripped files.

CD ripping error is digital audio data difference between original record (binary audio file content that is intended for CD pressing) and audio content of ripped file.

Original record is audio file that used to produce compact disc.

Correct error detection is correct detection of real broken byte.

False (wrong) error detection is fault on correct music information.

Abbreviations

ED - error detection

Correct and false (wrong) error detection in CD ripping

Maximal CD ripping quality is ripping without errors. I.e. binary music content of a ripped file should be fully identical to original record.

Aim of safe CD ripping software

In the first approach, CD ripping software can't improve sound of CD.

The best thing that can to do the software is binary exact copy of music information from optical disc to sound file only.

However, there are some details. If computer optical drive provide lesser reading error number, than audio optical disc player, ripped sound files can be closer to original master record than digital music stream, that read on the CD-player. It was important to remember, that hardware players have own ways of probable broken music restoration.

The word 'probably' is used too often in the article, because error rising, correct or false error detection, error fixing are not events with 100% probability.

What cause CD ripping fault

Digital music stream faults can cause either clicks or pauses or interruptions or other audible distortions.

CD ripping fault detection

There are different ways of the ripping error detection:

high level fault detection
checksum comparison of number identical ripped discs
low level fault detection

High level CD-fault detection

In this case CD audio stream is read:

- without error flags,

- without re-readings,

- with buffering of read information.

Audio information is corrected by optical drive anyway.

But there are some ways of additional ED are missed (read details 'Low level CD-fault detection' part).

Sometimes optical device driver of operation system is able to report about fault, sometimes - not (depend on implementation driver and operation system). CD ripper don't obtain to error flags, generated by compact disc drive, and store music information as is into files.

CD checksum comparison with database

This secure way calculate ripped CD's checksum. These checksums are collected into internet database. When you rip CD at the database compatible ripping
