No, I guess Musicmatch is just a low quality monster which doesn't check
c2 error pointers while reading. It will work most of the time, but if you =
try
to rip a scratched disc, you probably will get false data without noticing =
it.

I don't know GRIP, but perhaps it cares about quality and is therefore a
bit slower.

You could try cdda2wav with the paranoia option to see how fast your
drive can rip without producing garbage.=20
