>> Incidently if Accuraterip tells you your rip isn't accurate compared to their database - is there any point in trying to rip it again to see if the next go round is better or (due to the state of the CD re scratches etc) is the 1st rip as good as you're going to get?

You could use canned air (like photographers use) to gently blow dust out of your optical drive (this is more of a problem now that optical drives are generally used less frequently. You could try ripping it on other computers or other optical drives. Any of those things might result in an error-free rip.
But is it really worthwhile? Given EAC’s multi extract algorithm, if it doesn’t report any errors or problems, and only reports an Accurate Rip miss-match, why would you think your rip is the problem, and not the accurate rip DB?
If EAC reports problems extracting, then yes, re-ripping would be recommended, but if it’s happy that it got a clean extract, but reports it doesn’t match the Accu-Rip DB, I’m more inclined to believe EAC. Am I wrong in this trust?
