Hey hey, I have been using Sound Juicer on my Ubuntu 24 / KDE 5 PC and it works, but it doesn’t handle the tags for my MP3 files very nicely. I’ve also used abcde, at the terminal, and that can be better but it takes a lot finessing at the CLI to get the result I want.

Is there a better CD ripper application that will run on Ubuntu and can make setting the MP3 tags dead simple?

Thanks for any ideas!

Edit: Fixed a typo

ETA: Asunder looks good, does what I need and works well on my PC. Thanks for everyone’s ideas and help!

    Thanks. Am I right in seeing that the only install option for Asunder is to download the tar.bz2 file, extract it and then use make to build it? I have not done that before.

      It depends on which distro you’re using, but most have Asunder packaged, and you can use Picard as a Flatpak if you can’t find it natively packaged, IIRC.

        Thanks! Yah, just installed it with apt and it’s brilliant - simple, but everything I need.
