Rip Audio CDs in command line

We basically use two tools: cdparanoia and lame.

cdparanoia: Compact Disc Digital Audio extraction tool https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/cdparanoia/
lame: A high quality MPEG Audio Layer III (MP3) encoder https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/lame/
