Converting audio CDs to MP3s

pcgiant · 03-14-2003, 11:15 PM

I've recently purchased GTA3 and am looking to take advantage of the radio feature -- where you put MP3s into a certain folder and you can listen to them while driving. Is it possible to convert audio CDs to MP3s for this purpose? If so, how?

Thanks, pcgiant.

Theres a program called audiograbber that does a good job of this. Youll also need to download a codec to do the encoding, I use lameenc. Details of that are in audiograbbers help file.

There are heaps of programs that can do it. I always use Windows media player 7, this comes with windows xp, you can rip songs from audio cd's with it, also i think the media player that comes with windows ME also does it im not sure.
If you buy computer mags, the cd's that come with them usually come with audio ripping software.
By the way GTA3 kick ass!!!
