CD into MP3
Anyone know how turn a cd i put into my disc drive into mp3 on my hard drive?
I have advd burner and a regular drive cd burner. I cant figure out how to just directly take the songs or the songs i want from the cd and make into mp3 with the rest of my mp3s on the hard drive?
Or do I need special program for this?
thanks

go to: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
you can use it for MP3 along with the AAC format and it is pretty easy to use.

Ya, you could use Audiograbber too. It's free too. Though you might want to consider using Windows Media Audio. It is also free and compresses the cd format into WMA format which takes up half as much space as MP3s and has better sound quality. But if you plan to burn them onto a CD-R you will need to make sure your device can play mp3s and WMA files. I am able to fit 14+ cds, in WMA format, on one CD-R for use in my pioneed in dash cd/mp3/WMA player.

If you're concerned about quality, try "Exact Audio Copy" with the LAME MP3 encoder. Both are free and very good.

Yup I got windows media player. I like it too. I usually rip the cd's on the drive but i like to use winamp, and when i open the files in the winamp playlist it doesnt play them.
Anywho thanks for all the suggestions, Ill check some of them out.

)! I wasn't aware of the option for it to get the track info... I've been typing them in by hand. 
I'll have to check into that... it's a pain renaming all the tracks.
