Hi I have searched freshmeat, sourceforge, freshrpm and a few others.
Where do I download mp3encode?
I downloaded the latest grip3.1.5 which all the sites recommend, but
lame is just far too slow and now my winamp and xmms wont play the mp3s
I made. Whats more is cdparanoia is so slow it ridiculous,
On my windows box I can rip with music match jukebox a 6 minute track in
under a minute it take over 8 mins just to rip a 4 minute track in
linux.

Hellllp me Please.

I have a P4 2.4gig with HT and 512mb ddr400 ram an 80 gig 7200 seagate
hard drive on ATA 133 cables with a 56X cdrom, same specs as my windows
box. 
I should rip at lightning fast speed without the loss of quality. 
Music Match has just finished a dire straights cd with 12 track @
196kbit in 11  minutes

I have set the dma on my cdrom to udma2 and the read speed increase from
0.8x to 1.2x, I mean really why dont we all just go and by 2x cdroms.

What has happened to linux since redhat 6.1 when your installation took
8 minutes, I just installed rh6 to test my system performance on a spare
drive and the cdrom reads the whole disc with cddawav in just under 3
minutes.

Now with all the latest distrso installations take over an hour. CD
ripping is slow maybe the cdrom driver is the problem. because the cdrom
speed issue isnt relative to any specific distro.
On one of the Mandrake Distro when installing with a 52X LG cdrom it
killed the cdrom and LG had to release a flash so that you could repair
it. 

While writting this mail one of my colegues has just finished testing
Debian and the speed is faster that windows running music match  by far
try this, he just ripped and encoded with grip 3.1.5 the dire straights
cd in 5min 22 sec. The total play time on this cd is 72 minutes has 12
tracks. 

So whats up with the redhat based distros?
 
My $400
