I remember using Audiograbber at one point and was surprised to see it was still maintained.

Same. Still have a bunch of ALAC files from taking my MacBook to the library.

Lol I'd hit the library on my way home in high school, get a bunch of CDs rip, return the next day and leave with a new batch... The antitheft sticker made the discs unbalanced, so I ended up RMAing my drive three times in 4 months, before the store just gave me my money back and canceled the sale.

At the time ripping library CDs was legal, so I got like 25 albums each week, 4 weeks a months and 4 months total, so about 400 albums, legally (but ethically? No) for free.
