Running ISOs as cds
Are there any programs that you can use to create a virtual CD drive that would read an ISO as a CD?
Followup question: does this same program make it possible for me to rip redbook audio from said ISO?

Doesn't Daemon Tools do this?

For the first question, pirate Alcohol 52% (virtual drive emulation only) or Alcohol 120% (emulation plus ripping to ISO). Or, install Daemon Tools freeware (emulation only).
For the second question, no they don't. I suggest the use of Exact Audio Copy to rip aforementioned CD tracks, and convert them to your favorite format (LAME MP3, FLAC...) 2008 Gamingforce Composition Competition Join now, or your backside gets it! |

I prefer using PowerISO, which can rip and mount ISOs.
There's actually two version of Daemon Tools, Lite and Pro. Lite is for free and only mounts. I'm not sure if Lite still has the Ask toolbar nonsense, so make sure you don't click Next, Next, Next too quickly. I've tried ripping from an ISO. It failed miserably. The final product was pretty amusing to listen to though. Everything ran together and felt a bit like white noise.

Guys, ripping with EAC from an already created ISO (mounted in a virtual drive) is nonsense. You don't gain anything by using EAC in that kind of setup.
Just open the image in IsoBuster, select the track and let it extract. Fast and accurate (as the ISO is). If your image already has flaws in the audio tracks EAC won't make it better. It only works when a disc is inserted in a real optical drive. |

Oh and I already have eac and daemon installed, so i skip using a 3rd app completely. |

Sure, I was more talking about a gain in quality.
Using EAC for anything else than ripping is a matter of taste. I think there are superior tools for tagging, conversion, renaming, etc. Don't get me wrong, EAC does a superb job when it comes to ripping. I just believe in the "one function one tool" philosophy. Try to put additional features into a tool and the quality is going to drop. |
