About

CDex is a classic CD-Ripper application, renowned for extracting digital audio data from Audio CDs. Its comprehensive product portfolio supports numerous audio encoders including WAV, MP3, AAC, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, VQF, Musepack, and APE. Key features include offline functionality, portability, audio conversion, and multi-language support, available on Windows and PortableApps.com under a Free • Proprietary license. While a "real classic" with a history dating back to the Windows XP era, its development has reportedly ceased years ago, and recent installers have been criticized for containing adwares. Users have also noted issues with ASPI drivers in newer versions (e.g., 1.7x), leading some to suggest competitors like ExactAudioCopy (EAC) or Foobar's built-in functions as alternatives. Information regarding revenue, financials, leadership, employee count, or specific founding year is not available.
