Features

a command-line program which makes use of cdparanoia.
every track gets ripped twice and is compared with a 160-bit SHA1 checksum
if the checksums differ, the track will be ripped twice again until the checksum matches
CDDB-info is fetched via the pycddb module.
It can rip to FLAC, MP3, and Vorbis.
Lame and Vorbis can be configured, default for lame is: -V2 --vbr-new, default for vorbis is -q 6
You can choose the ripping device, otherwise default is used.
See pyripper --help for more information
The files will be saved as "working directory/extension/artist (year) album/tracknumber - trackname.extension
