To rip the contents out of a container is different from simply copying the whole container or a file.
A rip is the extracted content, in its destination format, along with accompanying files, such as a cue sheet or log file from the ripping software. Ripping is often used to shift formats, and to edit, duplicate or back up media content. Later, the term was used to mean to extract WAV or MP3 format files from digital audio CDs, but got applied as well to extract the contents of any media, including DVD and Blu-ray discs, and video game sprites.ĭespite the name, neither the media nor the data is damaged after extraction.
Originally, it meant to rip music out of Commodore 64 games.
Ripping is extracting all or parts of digital content from a container. This article is about copying digital media.
