CUERipper ~ Open Source PC CD Ripper
CUERipper is an utility for extracting digital audio from CDs, and an open-source alternative to EAC. It has a lot fewer configuration options, so it’s somewhat easier to use, and is included in the CUETools package.
Supports AccurateRip, CTDB, freeDB and MusicBrainz

Rip ~ Mac Ripper With AccurateRip Support
CUETools ~ Lossless Audio / CUE Sheet Conversion
The goal is to make sure the album image is preserved accurately. A lossless disc image must be lossless not only in preserving contents of the audio tracks, but also in preserving gaps and CUE sheet contents. Many applications lose vital information upon conversion, and don’t support all possible CUE sheet styles.
Supports AccurateRip
