How to rip cd to FLAC

I wish to eliminate my stack of CD's by archiving them onto a Hard Disk Drive.

I wish to have excellent FLAC files after ripping so that I can enjoy the music quality of the CD in the future, without having the actual CD anymore.

Is there a good program that would RIP the CD's into FLAC with GUI and exact reproduction of CD?

Thank you in advance-

iMac 21.5", 3.06GHZ-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Unfortunately, we are not allowed to discuss any workarounds to copyright and/or DRM issues or we would be violating the ToU of these forums.

I've used Max before, it was a definite + over iTunes for damaged cd's which wouldn't read properly, but it's not been updated since 2009. I've seen XLD recommended here too, but never tried it.
