EAC w/ Lame... it'll even name your files (assuming the disc is in freedb).

Edit:  it'll definately convert WAVs that are already on your drive (Tools -> Compress WAVs), but it may not do the DB lookup and naming process unless you rip and encode directly from disc.

Teddy's right, foobar rules. This beast will play anything...I opened a 24 bit .flac file in it the other night. I love EAC too.

There's an mp3 convertor built right into iTunes...look for a "convert selection to mp3" menu item. Not sure where it is in the PC version, but the Mac version has it under the "Advanced" menu.

Just be careful!!! - EAC is set to "Delete Source Files" by default when converting to MP3

LAME is the only mp3 converter that matters.  Nothing else comes close.

I agree.  I use LAME with Foobar2000 for my iPod stuff.
