Anyone have a favorite doco or info site for audio ripping
and mp3 (or aac) encoding under linux? I'm looking for
a 101, basic information; i.e.: how to encode ID3 tags,
*what* are ID3 tags, &c.

I think I'll be using cdparanoia for ripping CD's and lame
for mp3 encoding. Then xmms for playback. Is the AAC
format supported yet? Is it worthwhile to consider? How
can I incorporate the freedb database into this pipeline?

Thanks in advance -
Scott
