Anyone else buy Expulser's "The Unholy One" CD and have trouble converting in to mp3? Every time I try burning it, it takes forever to convert the tracks and when it does, the audio comes through jumpy and terrible, am I the only one with this problem?

I wonder what software and platform you are using...

I'm using an LG CD/RW and have iTunes on my windows laptop, that never happened before though, and I imported 5 other CDs and that's the only one I had trouble with

it might not be in the database and the thing is querying it and causing the audio to skip, try [if you can] disabling the CDDB or whatever Apple uses.
Also try a decent piece of ripping software like Audiograbber or CDEX

Also in your first post you said BURNING, are you ripping and burning on the fly?! or converting [transcoding] on the fly? or are you just ripping?

EAC is really good from memory yeah, there were maybe 4 or 5 decent rippers for Windows last time I used it
That disc isn't copy protected that I can see either.

^ Hmm. He should still check the case if there's anything about copy protection. And the disc if there is any damage. And if it plays fine. Even though iTunes is horrible, that sort of doesn't sound like a software problem...
