Confidence number in Accurate Rip

[Atver]

when ripping a CD I see the confidence number after each song range from 2 to 200, can anyone explain the importance of these?

Some CD's will try to rip 2X normally, then go to the Ultra rip. What does that mean?

Also, how do I put the album list in alphabetical order (by artist)

Still learning, thanks for a great product.

This number is the number of matches. So "150" means 150 other people have ripped this CD and received the same audio CRC (a match). A "2" means two other people have ripped this disk and reported a match with your rip. Even 2 is a good thing as this is equivalent to you ripping 3 different copies of your CD on 3 different computers with 3 different disk drives, etc. and you get the same bitperfect output all 3 times (yours and the two matching).
