Can anyone describe the process for ripping a cd to an MP3 format? Is aftermarket software required? I have not yet done it, but I know that software is required, most of which are very low cost (under $15), or free...
Just google mp3 converter and you will have more than you ever wanted to know.

I've converted CDs specifically to MP3 format using Music Match Jukebox.
Whether it is freeware or not I'm not too sure.. but look into it. I have it on my computer... Came with my dell setup or build.

Windows Media Players lets you rip any Audio CD, however it get put into the .WMA format. and not MP3 format.
Good luck

The easiest way is to use iTunes.
The second-easiest way is to download a program called Easy CD-DA Extractor.
Both are free.

If I recall correctly a .WAV file is huge... like 30 or 40 MB (megabytes) per song.....
Point being, do it .MP3 as the file will surely be small, like 3 MB per song.

Windows Media player version 10 will rip to mp3. Select the mp3 format from the rip options menu tab.

My MP3 Player rips CDS to to MP3 files right on the device. (Creative Zen Nano is the device.)
Doesn't help you at all, but I thought I'd brag. :)

I use Music Match, version 7.5 and converted all of my 100s of CDs to mp3. No problem and mostly automatic.

Use Exact Audio Copy which can link to Lame. Both are free and there is nothing, repeat nothing, either free or paid that can touch them for quality.
Quick start guide is here.

My 2 cents says...use
Audiograbber.
I've used a bunch of different software and this one is the easiest and most configurable.

Windows Media Player version 10 will allow you to convert to MP3 format.
ITunes works as well.....
You don't need to pay money for that, or at least I wouldn't.....
