CUETools helps ensure an album image is preserved accurately by managing lossless audio and CUE sheet format conversion. Since many applications don't keep track of preserving gaps and CUE sheet contents during conversion, or don't support all possible CUE sheet styles, CUETools preserves both with no loss in quality.

CUETools includes CUERipper, an extremely powerful yet easy-to-use CD ripping program, with features like lossless and lossy encoding options, EAC style logs, automatic metadata look-up and AccurateRip verification.

The included CUERipper program is utterly superb and should be mentioned in the description I strongly think since it doesn't have enough attention and currently doesn't show up in results (I'll fix that in a sec).

It has an easy to use yet poweruser-friendly interface, produces EAC logs with AccurateRip information, offers Burst/Secure/Paranoid ripping modes (with Burst correctly set by default), allows for image or track rips, verify options and moe.

And one of the main features which solidified my switch: both it and the main CUETools offer a metadata search UI that displays the extended tag info such as Publisher, Barcode, etc. The only ripper I've tried which displays and tags this.

it's not stealth
the last stable version saves files inside AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\CLR Security Config\v2.0.50727.312\64bit\

I've upgraded a 2.1.4 version to 2.1.5 by overwriting files.

I've lost my program configuration...

FYI, CueTools includes CueRipper which according to Hydrogen Audio is on par with Exact Audio Copy (see http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Comparison_of_CD_rippers).

Being a DotNET app, it is native to both 32 and 64 Windows. Also, there's v2.1.5 Beta available for download at CueTools' site.

I've update the listing to use the Visual C++ 2008 runtime libraries. Thanks Magibon!

I wrote a post about this a while back discussing how to make it stealth here:

You missed 1 dependency: Visual C++
