Re: EAC Track Quality 99.9%

As others have said, as long as the checksums match, the track was ripped perfectly.

However, I have heard that EAC can report "Copy OK" and still have non-matching checksums. I've never seen this happen, just heard that it can. Whether it's true or not, it's probably always a good idea to compare the checksums and not just rely on the "Copy OK" message.

What I have seen happen though, is EAC rip a scratched track, report copy OK, give matching checksums, but still have a very brief bit of silence in the track where the scratch was. So it's also usually a good idea to listen to your rips before sharing.
