I have a large video library created by ripping DVDs using WinX DVD Ripper. I would like to start an audio collection including Audio CDs I have. Can some one recommend a good product, freeware preferably, that can rip a CD to mp3s and include album art, artist.. that Serviio will recognize?

iTunes does a nice job of ripping music CDs and organizing them under the album name. You don't even need an iPhone or an Apple account to use it. Windows Media Player will also rip CDs, although I don't know how good it is at gathering the metadata. But it's free :D

A quick search and I found dBpoweramp (https://www.dbpoweramp.com/cd-ripper.htm). A 21 day free trial, and $39 for a one computer license. From the looks of it, that's probably about the best product there is for ripping music CDs and gathering the correct metadata.

dBpoweramp is superb and comes with other useful tools such as ID-Tag editor.
This is an important task and pay special attention to ensure the ripped data is correct. It will save you loads of time in the future.
Also you usually do this task once - why not go for the higher quality of flac. You can always generate mp3s from the flac versions if you need them.

But why free? This is a professional product. Do you not get paid for your work?

Did you manage to do it? Please share if you did. being a gaming streamer on twitch, I am hoping to get it working with webcam, my gameplay, my mouse, auto clicker and the gamepad controller view. Is there a way around it? Please suggest.
