Hi! I recently went on a research-dive on how best to rip CDs accurately, and this seems to be the forefront of the art's development. Thus I'm interested in a forum account here, both to make contributions to your database and to discuss logistics of how to maximize the quality of my rips for my own backup purposes. Last week, I purchased an ASUS BW-16D1HT, and flashed it with RibShark's firmware, as a step towards these ends.

Potentially-relevant discs I currently have physical access to and can offer dumps of include:

  • Kimi to Kanojo to Kanojo no Koi (1 Windows disc, missing from your database from what I can tell)

  • Saya no Uta (1 Windows disc, missing from your database from what I can tell)

  • Soukou Akki Muramasa (1 Windows disc, missing from your database from what I can tell)

  • Subarashiki Hibi 15th Anniversary Edition (3 Windows discs, 4 audio CDs, 1 DVD disc containing audio files, all missing from your database from what I can tell)

  • Touhou 6-8 (3 Windows discs, in your database from what I can tell, but I can send over dumps anyway if they'd be useful for verification)

  • Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon- Original Soundtrack (8 audio CDs, missing from your database from what I can tell)

  • ZUN's Music Collection (10 audio CDs, each containing entries from Touhou game soundtracks; I'm missing the 5.5th and 9.5th albums, but have all the integer-numbered ones released to date; the ten I have are all missing from your database from what I can tell)

  • Akyu's Untouched Score (6 audio CDs, technically listed in your database by name, but dumped via EAC and without associated pages-of-hashes-and-so-forth, such that I suspect they might benefit from another dump)

  • NieR:Automata Original Soundtrack (3 audio CDs, technically listed in your database by name, but dumped via EAC and without associated pages-of-hashes-and-so-forth, such that I suspect they might benefit from another dump)

Also, a side-question: is there any good method on Linux for taking redumper's output from an audio-CD-dump and checking it against AccurateRip and/or the CueTools Database? My secondhand understanding is that, on Windows, this is easy to do via CueTools, but I'd rather not grapple with getting CueTools running under Wine if any Linux-native alternatives exist.

A redump member has a custom version of CueTools that can do exactly this, not sure if it has been merged into mainline CueTools yet. It's faster and a better approach than EAC in my opinion, as e.g. EAC can't get data on the ends of some CDs.
