I needed something easy for my wife to use. | | With the correct plugins, grip can rip to mp3 from a drop-down menu. | Hi there, I use Sound Juices. After having done the modifications described in the help docs and added the extra required software it works nicely. Fortunately, as I am unable to get Amarok to recognize my cd/dvd player.
