Home ripping to flac


In my morphing hifi journey I have gone from vinyl records to cd’s and now streaming. I have 500 or so cd’s that I want to rip to flac files.  I’m looking for a player/gizmo that plays and rips with the ability to output to an external drive that I can load the files onto a Lumin L1. 

In the past I have used a service that rips but want to be able to rip in house and  maybe play a CD a few times a year. In other words the CD playing doesn’t have to be anything more than functional. 

I don’t want to rip with a CD drive into a computer….That’s to slow and a PIA for me.

I would be greatful for recommendations as to what to get. TIA

dBpoweramp pretty easy.
At least you can tag as you prefer.
Better databases than EAC
You'll need them for classical.
Free trial.
WMP in 10 finally does flac. Run as administrator if it gives you any crapola.
I can't justify getting another box to accomplish what I can already do.
And I highly doubt comparable results at that price point.
