Exact Audio Copy with LAME encoder. This program is especially good at reading scratched CDs if you set it to check for accuracy of the read operation.

It is a bit clunky in the user interface department, takes a while to figure out all the options. CDEX as mentioned by eighty5 is similar but not as complicated.

Both programs use the LAME ecocoder which is the best encoder available IMO.
