This section provides a tutorial on how to download and install FreeRIP on your Windows system.
Windows Media Player can RIP off music from an audio CD.
But it only supports two output formats: WMA and MP3.
If you want to generate uncompressed audio format like WAV,
you can try freeware FreeRIP.
Here is how I installed FreeRIP:
1. Go to http://www.freerip.com/.
2. Click the Download FreeRIP link.
3. Click the "Download NOW!" button. A donwload.com page shows up
displaying FreeRip 3.03 download information.
4. Click the "Download Now (1.69MB)" link.
Save the downloaded file to C:\temp\freeripmp3.exe.
5. Run C:\temp\freeripmp3.exe to start the installation.
Follow the instruction on the installation screen to finish.
By the way, FreeRIP3 will install a toolbar for your IE browser.
