Exact Audio Copy is a so-called audio grabber for audio CDs using standard CD and DVD-ROM drives.
These URLs are the ones Andre Wiethoff declares in its own manifest. We do not proxy or shorten them, and we do not host a copy.
Run this against the file on disk. If the output does not match the hash below, the file is not what Andre Wiethoff published. Delete it.

The version history of Exact Audio Copy, each release with the download URL the publisher declared at the time and the SHA-256 to check it against. Useful when an update breaks something and you need to downgrade to a build that worked.
We do not host any of these files and never re-upload them, which is the difference between this and an old-version download site.

Publishers take old builds offline without warning, so a link here can stop working even though the hash stays correct forever. If you already have the file, the hash is what matters: it tells you whether what you have is what they published.
Every Exact Audio Copy version with a published manifest, newest first. The most recent ones are listed above with their file names and hashes.
