Question for all you mp3 rippers. We're running into errors on the last track of MANY discs. Is this common? Everything seems to be ripping fine, and then as it gets to the last disc (or sometimes the last few) the jitter errors start piling up.
What's the deal?

The only discs I have any trouble with are old scratched discs and sometimes copys.

I have only run into problems on a few discs, and usually the second time around it is OK.
Maybe there is something wrong with the CD drive?

Hmm...perhaps, but it happens with both my and roger's computer. The tail end of discs very often give me errors. I've found that if I play the tracks that are giving me trouble with winamp, then try burning them, it's usually ok. But it's REALLY slowing down this ripping process. We're only about 1/2 done ripping our collection.

1337 is sort of a self referential term. It pretty much grew out of the AOL, uh, culture of chatting, etc, as far as I know. 1337 translates to "leet" which translates to elite. In some circles (12 year old wanna be hackers), it is a term of praise. In others (real geeks) it is a term of ridicule. Leet-speak is typing using funny characters, 43nc3. I obviously don't know much of it. You often see it used in online first person shooter games, as in "1 0wn2orD y3r @$$ 1u23R!"
I'm sure someone else could speak to this in a more educated fashion.
Ok this isn't fully true... I haven't written in "l337" (or l33t) in ages... and it isn't a term of praise or "OH MY GOD YOU'RE AMAZING", but it's not a term of ridicule either... To me and my friends that use it, it's basically just "cool", or "that's l337", etc. To each their own.
As for CD - MP3.
Cdex, Cdex, Cdex. It's a geeky program, with a geek interface... It was updated recently, but man, it's meant for geeks, and any good geek can update lame drivers now and then
