MP3 Software?
MP3 Software?
What is a good program to use to burn CDs to MP3 format? I got a nice BMW MP3 Watch for Christmas so I wanna make sure I get some good software that will keep the sound quality.

And, what does the Search and Rescue of the Danish Army entail? Looking for your nations pride and dignity? Cause I don't think I could find that either, cause even Canada has more of both than Denmark.

Well I basically want to rip songs onto my HDD so I can put them on my watch which is an MP3 player. I am using Windows Media Player but I am curious if there is anything better that people would recommend trying

you're ripping cd->mp3?
there is only 1 option if you care about music fidelity
well, there are more, but this is the only one i'd recommend.
download "exact audio copy" (its freeware). google for it, or search on download.com or something.
then download "lame 3.9x". i dunno what version they're on now, i think i'm using lame 3.90. this is the open source mp3 encoder that outperforms most commercial mp3 encoders these days.
exact audio copy rips your cds into wave files better than any program i've ever tried, and you can have exact audio copy run lame to encode your files for you, so it should be pretty transparent.
then again, you are using a freaking watch to listen to mp3s, so maybe you don't need the highest quality mp3 encode. i think formats like WMV work much better when you get to <96kbit bitrates.
typically i'll encode my mp3s at either 192kbit vbr, or 256kbit vbr.
