Does anyone know a good tool I can download that will let me rip CD's to MP3? I've only got MS media play 9 & just discovered that it will only allow you to copy a CD to some weird Windows Media Audio format or something which I don't want.
Cheers

According to the old threads there you can set the registry up so that media player will copy to mp3 format. Sounds like more hassle than just downloading something else!

I'll try that cdex thing.

cheers for your help

I used cdex last night and it did the job very well once i'd set it up properly. Used the LAME encoder at 160kbs which seems to give a pretty reasonable quality without making the files too big.
