Question about secure rip

[WastelandMO]

I have been tipping my CDs. I have been getting the green Secure note after which track on a lot of discs, but as of yesterday, none say secure, just AR. Did I change something without realizing it?

Can you post a screenshot?

This is great. AccurateRip with a number in parentheses is even better than secure. In this case your rip matched the rips of 101 or 99 other people that ripped that CD. Even AccurateRip (2) is great (two different people ripping different copies of the cd on different computers get identical digital files!).

Thanks! I did not realized that!

Can you explain what this means now?

That one track didn’t match the AccurateRip database info. But still considered a secure rip. This is a bit odd given that rest of album matches. I’d try to rip that track again. Sometimes helps to rip on a different cd drive.
