converting songs to mp3

Is there a way to rip your cd's to the computer and then convert them to mp3, and burn them back on to a cd-r. (To use them in a CD/MP3/WMA deck.) What program and stuff?

I use dBpower AMP music converter to convert from WAV to MP3. Then you can use Nero, Roxio or any other number of cd burning programs to burn the cds, there should be a MP3 or WMA option. With dBpower AMP you can choose to convert anywhere from 32Kps (low quality) all the way up to 320Kps (high quality) I usually convert at 192Kps or 224Kps. I personally cant tell the differance between MP3 and WAV, as long as the MP3 is fairly high quality, I will look into that ubernet thing though.

how many normal cd's do you usually get on an mp3 cd. (I've heard 10, is this true?)

i get over 8albums, i burned the entire SLAYER discovery on 2 CD's, thats alot of albums i can tell you that much. BTW, so long as you rip with a 256 bitrate, you should have equal sounding quality to your ears. I find nero to the the better choice for burning mp3's to cd, windowsXP can doit, but neros has had better overall burning success, without any hiccups in the actual music. be warned if you have an older PC it would be wise to not touch the computer or have too many background programs running, it can affect the burn.

i used the dbpower amp music converter, an then went to burn them on to a cd using NERO, and it said i was going to use up the entire cd (for only one cd that I converted in to mp3) (it did say they were all in mp3 form too) why is this?

Did you go to MP3 disc in the nero menu, or just music cd. make sure you are telling it to burn a MP3 disc. It should be right on the main menu, I have nero express though, you might have something else.

kfr01, i suppose you have the paid for versions right? what all programs do i need.
