Rip AAC Old School v0.9

This is an AppleScript wrapper for the command line tool afconvert. It will rip CD tracks as AAC using Constant Bit Rate (CBR) so that ripped tracks will all have the same bit rate. The latest versions of iTunes now rip (and convert) tracks to AAC using Average Bit Rate (ABR) or Variable Bit Rate Constrained (VBR_Constrained); these are the settings you get with VBR unchecked or checked, respectively. Thus, ripped tracks will not necessarily have the exact bit rate you select.

Requires Mac OS 10.5 or better.
