'''ABCDE''' ('''A''' '''B'''etter '''CD''' '''E'''ncoder) is a [[CD ripper]] for [[Linux]] and [[UNIX-like]] operating systems, operated entirely from the [[command line interface|command line]]. The program can be run 'as is' or can run with command line switches or from a config file. It will query either [[FreeDB]] or [[MusicBrainz]] for the CD currently in the drive, display a list of possible matches to choose from, then optionally rip, encode, tag the files and even optionally normalize, add replaygain information or create a playlist. As of version 2.6 ABCDE can rip to [[Vorbis]], [[FLAC]], [[MP3]], [[Wav]], and others.
