Hello! A few questions:

• what version of whipper (whipper --version) and cdparanoia (cd-paranoia --version) are you using?
• are you able to rip other discs?
• are you able to rip this disc with another program? (or at least to listen to it with other software like Rhythmbox?)

[shibumi]

Whipper version: 0.10.0
cd-paranoia version: 10.2+2.0.2

I was able to rip other discs and I was able to rip the same disc, I just had to retry it a few times.
There seems to be something wrong with my CD reader. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Plugging it out and in again, usually fixes the issue.

I think we can close this one, because it's more likely to be hardware related.
