Audio CD Ripper and Encoders – Free Software
EAC (Exact Audio Copy
What to say? It considered the program to extract audio tracks from CDs with absolute quality. Many other programs do a great job (as the ones on this page), but EAC does it perfectly, allowing verification of the end of the extraction of the same quality than the original.
For those who consider themselves, addicts quality audio is an obvious choice, although it is more difficult to configure than the other (you lose a bit of minutes, while others work immediately).

CDEX (Rip CDs and Convert to MP3)
Open Source program to rip tracks from CDs EAC type, simple to use and understand. It does not have the perfection of EAC, it is immediate and does a good job.
It also allows you to convert from one format to another with relative ease. And maybe a bit squashed by competing programs (EAC to be precise, and dBPowerAmp to the many features), find its place among lovers of simplicity: convert audio CDs to MP3 is very easy. CDex does not require installation.

DBPowerAmp Music Converter
Like CDex, this also allows you to execute ripping and encoding, ie extract and encode CDs into a digital format (WAV, MP3, OGG, etc.). And fast to extract CD (much of EAC and CDex and on the same line of Easy CD-DA Extractor. Of course, those who use EAC not you worry about a few tens of minutes more …).
It converts well from one audio format to another (wma, mpc, ape, ogg, aac, etc.) And also has a good player for our PC. If you want to save in mp3, used version 9 (the latest versions of the mp3 encoder is no longer supported free), otherwise perform the extraction in WAV, and then converted to MP3 (or other) audio formats with conversion programs, since that there are several.
It was once one of the best (if not the best). The appearance of a paid version has unfortunately very limited functionality, especially for the lack of support of mp3 -like said- in versions after 9. The download links below refer to version 9 that free, albeit old years, it still works very well with all versions of Windows, both 32 and 64 bits.

VSDC Free Audio Grabber (convert to mp3)
And software to extract audio CD and convert them to MP3 or other formats. Tracks are automatically renamed (with author’s name and the song), just click on the button Free DB after inserting the CD.
Operation is as simple imaginable, since to remove the CD are just three clicks: the first on Free DB (just to automatically rename the tracks), the second on the desired format (mp3, aac, m4a, ogg, etc.) and the third on Grab, to kick off the draw.
There are no more advanced features, like the ability to have a single track with a CUE file or accurate extraction (AccuRip, or even the ability to vary the number of attempts in case of errors on the disk, or the like); it is suitable for those who want to take a CD quickly and without giving them too wound.
VSDC Free Audio Grabber installs an adware (Open Candy). If you do not want this adware, or made a pass with an anti-malware program, or waive to install.

EASY CD-DA Extractor (Shareware)
Wonderful program to rip CDs and convert audio tracks from one format to another. Fast, high quality and very simple to use. Updated very frequently, it is extremely valuable. It allows you to extract CD format we want (like mp3, ogg, mpc, wma, wav, mpc, EPA – MonkeyAudio, etc.), Or to convert from one format to another (though the extraction of EAC remains unbeatable, both clear). Also it supports .cue (ie to an audio track only).
Also it allows you to write audio CDs starting from all formats that supports. The defect? It’s not free, since it costs about $ 30 (in each case, the registration allows free lifetime updates) …
