I agree about MythMusic but MythVideo isn't quite so bad. It's very
easy to tweak to get something more useful. I've done that myself
with nothing more than shell scripts. The end result is very easy to
use and generates most of the WAF I get out of the system.

I don't think the usability of the rippers really matters since any
open system isn't dependent on it's own internal tools for this sort
of thing.
