It can be used with a free CD-ripping program called Exact Audio Copy (EAC) to create high-quality MP3s. Here's how: Installation Step 1: Download the to a folder on your PC and unzip it. Step 2: Download and install. You'll need to have an audio CD in your optical drive in order for EAC to configure the drive for use.

Accept all the defaults and when you're prompted, enter the location of the LAME encoder you unzipped in Step 1. You'll also want to enter your e-mail address so you can use the freedb CD database. Step 3: Go to EAC Compression Options (or F11) and click on the External Compression tab. Change the bit rate to your desired setting. I recommend 192kbps at a minimum, though anything above 320kbps is probably overkill and the resulting file size will be very large. Screenshot by Ed Rhee/CNET Rip/encode a CD.
