They all checksum each track, plus the CD - if the CD matches, you get cover art; if no whole CD, each track is matched against various databases - this is essential for compendiums, e.g. "Baroque Favorites" or "Best of..." collections.
The rippers also use the CD's embedded tags (if available) else the genre tags are picked up again from on-line databases (blues,classical,choral,baroque,soul... etc.).
The tagging is never 100% perfect and you WILL need a tag editor of some sort. I tend to mount the ripped music drive as an SMB (Windows) share, and use a windows-based tag editor, e.g. http://www.softpointer.com/tr.htm
