I've been trying to use VLC to rip a CD, using the Convert / Save menu option as shown in this guide. Whenever I try this, though, no matter what settings I pick, I get a 0 byte file. What's the correct way to rip a CD to file?

I had the same problem. It turned out that in the first menu 'start position' was set to track "0". Simply changing it to 1 or whatever track you want to rip should solve it
Try resetting your preferences, by going to Tools->Preferences and clicking on Reset Preferences. Apparently changing the bitrate even once garbles the output.
You might also try this batch file.
There are many other ripping tools recommended on Superuser, as well (see here for Linux, and here for Windows).
