CNET Editors' review
For ripping audio CDs, burning CDs and DVDs, and converting tracks, Easy CD-DA Extractor excels. Besides rolling in support for Apple Lossless, the latest update focuses on back-end changes that should improve the audio quality and make the program faster.
A well-organized interface displays all of the major features and settings. Four tabs across the top access the Audio CD Ripper, the Audio File Format Converter, Audio CD Creator, and MP3/WMA CD Creator. Ripping CDs is simple: Insert a disc and the Audio CD Ripper window displays info such as artist, track list, year, track length, and album length. The destination folder, the quality and format of output tracks, and even the filename format are all easily edited.
MP3 settings include the ability to choose constant, average, or variable bit rates. The Audio File Format Converter window features a drag-and-drop file selection topped by a conversion-format window. The program supports a large list of lossy and lossless formats including MP3, OGG, WMA, APE, FLAC, AAC, and 3GP. The Audio CD Creator window lets you drop files into that screen, choose the recording speed, and toggle the test feature. The MP3/WMA CD Creator window works similarly and adds much-needed support for data discs.
Easy CD-DA Extractor is easy to learn, quick to use, and loaded with features. It stands tall among the teeming mass of CD-ripping/music-conversion apps.

"Can be great for some, not so for others!"
Version: Easy CD-DA Extractor 16.0.2
Pros
I think it has a lot of features people would like. With that said it had a couple lack of features that were killers for me. Decided to uninstall - see beloe
Cons
1. Told it where my music file was and it retrieved it on the spot.
2. It has that nice drag and drop feature that is so important which is another plus.
3. The stopper was, it did not list the artist, only the date and the song title. With over 6,200 songs you have to sort through the whole lot to find the 20 or so you want to burn to the disks. Thus, is you want to create a cd with one artists, you have to do it on the drive you have and then put those songs in a folder. Then extract that folder into the program.Summary
All in all I thought it was limited. Note, it you have a burned cd for your car and try and copy it, it only list the tracks, not the song title or the artist so your screwed if you want to delete some songs and recreate the discs since you do not know what each track is. Thus, the program is only half user friendly to me.
PS, it kept giving two choices about what you want to do with the discs. None of them were to create a audio cd for the car so it may also lack that feature. The feature I want the most of course.
