I tried fre:ac but got an error from cddb when trying to connect to the database. Looking to rip to both FLAC and to Opus. Ideally with the latest codec updates.

Any recommendations?

    cdparanoia is old but has always worked fine, even on crappy drives and damaged disks. Even many modern tools like cyanrip just use cdparanoia to do the actual ripping, just wrapping it in a new UI. You will need to convert the output with another tool, but this is quite easy. (For mp3 disks, just mount them and copy the files, no special tools needed)
