How do I create MP3 songs?
You can easily create your own .MP3 by following the instructions below:

Rip the audio data from CD to your HDD using any of the following CD Rippers. CD Rippers allows you to specify exactly which track or point in a track to be ripped.
If you save the ripped data to .WAV format, you can edit and manipulate the data using Wave editing program such as CoolEdit96. You can also cut any silences or pops from the ends of the sample.

Once you've satisfied with your .WAV file, you're now ready to encode it to .MP3 format. Note that you can skip editing if you're happy with the original condition from the CD Audio. You can download the following encorders/decoders by selecting the correct version for your operating system.
