My friend told me:

"Buy the headphones where you can hear the difference between 128kbps VS 320kbps of MP3"

since I could never did -_-; — yet, I gave up.

Anyway, for those who love in ripping / converting audio CD, you should know how it is; but for me, it’s been a while I haven’t converting CD to MP3 myself, since torrent provides everything. But I do converting various formats such as OGG, WMA, AAC and Midi sometimes, into MP3.

I looked up on the Internet for a good free software to handling all these files, but I couldn’t find it. You have to pay for the software at most. I’ve tried several programs with their trial version, and they just suck. Usually they limiting your converting period into few minutes per file only.

Later on, I found this audio converter, called as Blaze Media Pro. The trial version is kind enough to let us use the whole features for 15 days. Quite catchy actually. I have a mini-review to write about this tool.

This software not only an audio converting tool, but also embedded as an audio player, video encoder, DVD/CD burner, and also Audio & Video Editor. It’s like… crazy, for all those features cramped into one mini software, but it is.

It also capable in extracting the Audio from video files into those kinds of audio format. Extracting pictures as well, in BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, and all image formats you know. Quite a powerful software actually, even you have to pay $50 for it.

Actually, I found few bugs, which I’m not sure if it’s my PC system or the software; and also some lack points:

One, when you’re trying to edit the audio, if you click on the windows before loading the audio file, it’ll closed by this error message "Runtime error 6 — overflow"

Two, when you’re trying to burn the CD / DVD, if you didn’t put any disc on your drive, it’ll keeps processing until error comes up. Well…

Three, no "Cancel" button on the features. If I’m converting 10 mp3s, I have to wait until it’s complete before I can move on. Either that, or I need to hit close button if I change my mind… where you will lose all tracks you added.

Four, no Equalizer on the player.

Other than that, it’s a pretty good, complete and compact software. The navigation is quite user-friendly, even you have to get yourself familiar with all their icons. Oh, and for you Apple-hater/lover, this software also have a MOV converter feature as if you rather throw or keeping your QuickTime player.

You can look up what this software can do on the Web site, and get to try it yourself.
