I've messed around quite a bit with ripping on linux (although not in the last 1-2 years) and eventually just gave up and ran EAC under wine. EAC uses the album information on the CD to look up track lists on the internet. Ripping and tagging are done in one step this way. Outside of that, you can use something like EasyTAG to tag the tracks after they are ripped. You can also use it to search databases on the internet to get tags. However, with really new or obscure albums they may not exist - you might have to tag them manually anyway. Dan
