I have lots of audio CDs and last year I did some systems programming, so I figured it would be cool to rip audio CDs using my own software. I used LLMs to understand how it is done, and I've learned a great deal on how SCSI commands are formed and processed.

I also wrote a separate app to actually rip the CDs using this library and populate the metadata, but I think technically it is much less interesting.

I think the biggest takeaway is that if you have some intimidating project, give it a try! It might be very much doable.
