Editor's review of CD Extraction Wizard

When all is said and done, this CD ripper strikes us as a strictly average offering. True to its name, CD Extraction Wizard walks you through the steps of ripping tracks in MP3, WAV, WMA, or OGG formats. Unfortunately, the program doesn't allow you to encode tracks using the space-concious VBR method. The wizard-based approach ensures that even folks who've never before ripped a disc will be able to quickly get their bearings. Like any decent audio-extraction tool, this one allows you to set the quality of your new files and retrieves track information from the Web. However, unlike a lot of rippers we've seen, CD Extraction Wizard forces you to restart your computer before you can use it, a requirement some users may find inconvenient. We also think the 10-track trial restriction is rather miserly, especially considering this program's stiff competition. Beginners may be able to overlook this program's flaws in favor of its user-friendly design.
