To select one, you must know what you are going to use it for.

Different audio subcultures have their own favorite applications. Wikpedia's List of Notable Commercial DAWs is an excellent starting point in your search.

Among professional programs, Adobe Audition is worth highlighting. And among free software I would choose Audacity, for a free program the functionality is quite large

SoundForge ($$$) can read and encode quite a bit, can rip CDs.
Audacity (free) can decode (if you supply a certain ffmpeg version) and encode a lot.
Can not rip CDs, but you may use an old Nero Version to rip for Audacity.
Rare audio codecs to uncompressed audio: eac3to, I saw myself using even Avisynth, LibavLWAudioSource() followed by SoundOut().
Certain encoder plugins can be used in most DAWs
Some more recent pro encoders are standalone and can not be included, you got to feed them uncompressed .wav anyway.

These are marks of consumer software.

A professional audio editor is NOT supposed to rip CDs - the professionals CREATE their music.

They do not support most common audio formats - they should work with one good one, like BWF or other internal formats of their own. Exporting/importing of known formats (like WAV, AIFF but not MP3 and the like, as popular they might be) is a bonus, that is usually found in semi-pro (ambitious consumer).

Search for Convert CD to X and live happily - this is probably what your professional music software has to do.
