Another way, geeky but an alternative to python. Cumbersome but probably not needing any new knowledge. If you rip the CDs in order the windows timestamp for the files will be in the right order. Copy them into one folder then on the command line in that folder write the directory listing into a file (dir > files.txt) Open that text file in excel as fixed column width so that you can get the filenames on one column width and the timestamp in another. Delete the rows that you don't need and sort the rest in timestamp order. Now use Excel autofill to generate a column wih incremental filename (track01, track02 etc or whatever) alongside the sorted filename. In another column use Excel text function to make up a rename command using the names from the two columns. Copy the context of that column to the clipboard and paste it into notepad Save that as something like renames.bat in the folder with the tracks (or a copy of it to be on the safe side) run the batch file by double clicking it.
