When I rip cds, I use the script 'abcde', and I have it configured to use lame and cdparanoia.
If you use lame, remember that in addition to changing the bitrate, you also choose a 'quality value', from 1-10, which tells lame what algorithms to use when trying to approximate human hearing. Some are more effective than others, but the better they are, the slower they tend to be. The default is 5, but I use 2.
For filesharing on Linux, I use gtk-gnutella. But WinMX and Kazaa-Lite for Windows seem to be a bit more effective when looking for reasonably obscure titles.
