I use a program called AoA Audio Extractor.
You need to pay for it, but there's plenty of free keys online to use.

Mediahuman audio converter. Very easy to use for those who aren't very tech-savvy. And it's free.

What do you mean? Mediahuman is the easiest GUI in, like, the entire planet. Just open files up in the program, choose the output, and click "Convert".

Foobar2000. The respect legal licensing for provided codecs/libraries.

I have no idea about any other software.
Some programs out there outright violate license agreements (PotPlayer certainly does with FFMPEG).
Although, we're all pirates here, that's still something you don't want to contribute to.
Especially where "pro" versions are involved.

FB2K! For Windows.

I have to say that Foobar is extremely fast at converting, and it can convert pretty much anything.
Yet it can't recognise Vorbis inside FSBs, which I'm still trying to play by the way.

xACT... bitte sch�n! :D (it's effective and free)

note: this is just for transcoding.

xld is the best and the standard for any serious cd ripping on mac.

also great for transcoding to various formats

All libraries for FB2K should be optimized for SSE2 instruction set of your CPU.
Although CPU's today can go as high as AVX2 or AVX-512, when it comes to the math required for audio compression, you won't get anything out of it using AVX/AVX2 built libraries.

Closed-source programs from different companies, don't know if they optimize all libraries for SSE2 or have other things going on that would otherwise slow things down.

There's also the option of using different compiler-built binaries.
Most common binaries to get are built with Intel compiler. Which are fine and dandy.
But if you can get ones that are built with MinGW/GCC compiler, then you can easily get greater speed improvements for decoding, transcoding, encoding, etc.
The math is quicker, and also the same as using Intel compilers. There won't be a difference in quality, just the speeds.
There's also Visual Studio builds (Microsoft compiler), but they're usually really slow too.
GCC > ICL > MSVC
