"Exceptional Program, Exceptional Value"
Version: DVD Audio Extractor 3.2
Pros
Absoutely one of the best programs I have ever used, and the trial format is the only one I'm willing to laud. Every other program limits the amount of time you can convert. This makes it impossible to truly see just how powerful the program is. This one, however, is a 30 day limit. It gives you a month to use the program to it's fullest extent and decide how good it is, and trust me, it is an amazing product. The interface is smooth and user-friendly, the performance is fast and reliable, even at the highest conversion rates, and it has an auto-detect feature that allows it to automatically detect the DVD in the drive and prepare to rip it. All you have to do is click the title, check the chapters, and hit 'next.' From there, you can choose the conversion format and quality, from a wide array of both. Highly recommended, even for the casual ripper. Completely worth even a single use. I will be buying this product myself.

"Excellent Program"
Version: DVD Audio Extractor 3.2
Pros
Excellent program, simple, efficient and easy to use. I have downloaded several programs of the kind offered for a trial and this is the only one that not only works but is also entirely trouble-free without posing any difficulty.

"Consistantly easy to use, no crashes! Use with Win2K and Win XP Pro"
Version: DVD Audio Extractor 3.1
Pros
Easy to use. Can customize audio output and format. Fast and reliable.
Cons
Name recognition. Its name sounds like every other DVD ripper out there. This one is great, put that in the name!

"Great at what it does, simple interface"
Version: DVD Audio Extractor 3.0.2
Pros
- Displays tracks and languages for click selection
- Converts to all popular formats, including re-sampling (48ks/s to 44.1)
- Choice of one file per track
- Rock solid on XP
- Wizard-like interface, so easy to use it does not require a help file. Buttons, messages all logical and friendly.
Cons
- Step-by-step approach, while easy to learn, is less efficient: identify tracks to extract, wait 25 minutes (2 hours DVD) for the audio to be extracted, THEN identify format and file location, wait another 10 minutes for the conversion.

"The One That Does It All - DTS-PCM 96k/24b-Dolby Digital"
Version: DVD Audio Extractor 3.0.2
Pros
This is for ripping the audio portions of DVD-Videos. It can do all forms of PCM (most rippers can only do 48k/16 bits). It does Dolby Digital (DD) and more important it’s the only one I know of that does DTS. You have many choices on how you want the audio ripped - mp3, wav, ogg, all types of sampling rates, bit rates, mono, stereo, and 6 channels. It can even rip a 5.1 DD or DTS signal into 6 separate tracks, if you want to mix it yourself. The best thing about it is it can convert the audio from a DVD into a CD image and cue to be burned by Nero or any other burning software. When you do this you can have the CD tracks equal the chapter tracks of the DVD. It can rip to direct stream also. You can rip as a whole or just certain songs. You can normalize if you want too but I wouldn't recommend it because it does it by song, so the volume would not be consistent with the DVD. When choosing which audio track to use most of the time the stereo PCM version will be the best, however with some DVDs the pcm track will have less dynamice range so it will sound decent on TV speakers. In those cases use the DTS tracks or the 5.1 DD, always use the DTS tracks over DD when available. Most of the time the Stereo DD tracks are the same as the PCM tracks.
