wav). If your CD writer supports higher speeds,
you can use the speed option to double (speed=2) or to quadruple (speed=4) the writing
speed.
After you have created the music CD, indicate the contents of the CD on its label side. It??™s now
ready to play on any standard music CD player.
Ripping CDs with Grip
For GNOME users, the Grip window provides a more graphical method of copying music from CDs
to your hard disk so that you can play the songs directly from your hard disk or burn them back onto
a blank CD. Besides just ripping music, you can also compress each song as you extract it from the CD.
You can open Grip from the red hat menu by selecting Sound & Video???Grip (or by typing grip
from a Terminal window). Figure 20-6 shows an example of the Grip window.

Playing Music and Video 20
To rip audio tracks from a CD with grip, do the following:
1. With the Grip window open, insert a music CD into your CD drive. If you have an active
connection to the Internet and the CD is known to the CD database, the title, artist, and
track information appears in the window.
2. Click each track that you want to rip (that is, copy to your hard disk). A check mark
appears in that track??™s Rip column.
