I'm just doing some research for someone who wants to get some of her CD music onto an MP3 player and thought that I could get some good info. here.
Can anyone recommend any good software to convert CD Audio to MP3?

TIA.

Surprisingly, Windows Media Player 10 does a pretty good job.

I also like MusicMatch Jukebox.

dBpowerAMP Music Converter. Converts single audio files and rips cd's.

Thanks everyone. Running Windows 2000 on this computer so I am limited to WMP 9.

I'm probably just going to recommend converting CD Audio to WMA and place that on an MP3 Player. Unless anyone knows of a program converting directly from the CD Audio (.cda) to mp3. Otherwise files would need to be copied from the CD to WMA and then converted again.

CDEx. Or just search on Google for "cd +rip".

I used to use dbPower Amp. But since getting my iPod I highly recommend iTunes for ripping

. Seems to handle the ID3 tags better than any other software.

Is that specifically for iPods or can it be used with other players?

It is a player

but it isn't restricted to iPods at all.

winamp (the latest version, ofcourse) is best.. its customizable with very useful features like choosing the streaming and file type etc. plus its very efficient and fast
