What is Audex?

Due to the lack of a good cdda extraction tool with view on archival funtions, audex is a new audio grabber tool for CD-ROM drives based on KDE 4.
Although it is still under development, it is published as a beta version. It is being tested by some testers and this program may change on the way to its first stable 1.0-release.
