Don't fear the command line. Use abcde, which is just a front-end to the
real tools (that K3B and others use): cdparanoia, cddb, (too)lame, and so
on. And you can always use the subordinate tools directly. That way you
have all the configurability you might ever want, and as much as any tool
built on top of them can provide.
