AKRip is a lightweight, 32-bit Windows application designed to extract CD digital audio from Redbook audio CD-ROMs. It can output to a raw sample file, to a WAV format file, or if it detects the BladeEnc DLL, it can output to MP3 format. ID3 v1 tagging of output MP3 files is supported.

It currently is known to work with most ATAPI/IDE CD-ROMs, and with several SCSI devices.
