I don't know about Blu Ray, but I rip all my normal CD Albums to FLAC using Audacity, then I use EasyTAG to add the metadata info and album art icons.

You can probably rip it to WAV using ffmpeg (ffmpeg can read almost anything), and then encode to FLAC with regular flac encoder from Xiph flac package.
mpv also works as a nice frontend for ffmpeg.
Something like:
mpv --no-video --ao pcm --ao-pcm-file target.wav some_source
Though flac encoder is picky, you need to figure out how to generate a wav it can understand.

I ask because I think I'll start playing TW3 this week. I already played the witcher 2 but I couldn't get myself around playing TW3 until now that I'm on holidays (and I only purchased it recently).
I read that the same as witcher 2 it can be a little difficult at the beginning but then it becomes easy. And also that is much easier than TW2 so maybe I should play it in a harder difficulty than the normal one. TW2 was just the right amount of difficulty I like in a game.

I started it on normal and it is too easy in my opinion, cruised thru the entire game with no difficulties whatsoever and I didn't play Witcher 1 or 2. Never died once in combat playing it Arkham Asylum style ( like a brute if you prefer ) only by falling from a cliff or drowning.
Spoiler, click me

(One downside of all this, though, is that when you take a long break from playing, picking it back up becomes really hard -- which is what happened to me, as I went back to play the expansions. Now I have to relearn how everything works, incl. the crafting, and the runes, and whatnot; and it doesn't help that the user interface got updates in the meantime (the interface did get easier to use; but then again that's one more thing to relearn). I'm not terribly motivated to put in the 'work' again, so the Blood and Wine expansion sits gathering dust. Maybe I'll return to it after I sort out my stuff in the real world.)
