EAC (Exact Audio Copy) settings — recommended for secure, accurate rips

Read retries and error recovery:

Exact Audio Copy (EAC): In the world of CD ripping, EAC is the gold standard. It utilizes a "secure mode" that reads every audio sector multiple times, comparing results to ensure that jitter, scratches, and read errors are mathematically eliminated. An EAC rip guarantees a bit-perfect copy of the original compact disc.
FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec): Unlike MP3 or AAC (which discard frequencies to save space), FLAC compresses without losing a single ‘1’ or ‘0’ from the source. Listening to Flying Colors in FLAC allows you to hear the wood of Steve Morse’s fretboard, the attack of Portnoy’s kick drum beater, and the subtle decay of Neal Morse’s Hammond organ reverb.
