"Good alternative to Quicktime, iTunes, Max 0.9.1"
Pros
Good quality of rips. High bitrates possible (over 330 k/sec possible), able to use 48 KHz sampling (Max is unable to do this). Excellent error correction (As good as Max, superior to iTunes/Quicktime)
Cons
Album downloading useless. Finiky about the CD's and physical condition.
Summary
It's a good program. It's certainly capable of being as good as Max 0.9.1, it is more flexible on the sampling rate, where Max is limited to the master recording sample rate. It's needs a bit of work on the album cover downloading.
It's a good alternative to Max, it's superior to iTunes/Quicktime for the quality of the file conversions.
