MP3?
The nice people at Palm sent me my free MP3 player Audio Kit!
Where would one go to get MP3 files? Since I am theof cheap, I'd like to get some free files to see if I'm even going to mess with this MP3 stuff.

I used to go to here: http://www.kazaa.com/us/index.htm and download all my MP3's before the music police showed up. Before that, Napster was my MP3 site of choice.
I haven't tried Kazaa lately (6 mos. or so), but I know Napster is now a pay to play site!
i usually use my cd's to put them on my computer, or borrow cd's from friends. but if i really want a song (really really) i still use kazaa then i erase it out of my shared file as soon as i download it. but i havent used kazaa in a long time for music.
you could alwasy start drinking pepsi and hopefully win one of the millions of songs they are giving away, then you can go to napster and download it for free.<----- looks like an evil napster guy
tailchaser has a good point there. All you need is some 'ripper' software/freeware that will strip tracks off of a CD and convert them to MP3's. I'm not sure if WIN/XP has those functions built in now or not.Originally Posted by tailchaser
windows media player will rip it to wma format but not mp3. i believe there is an add on you can download (buy) from microsoft so it will rip them as mp3's though, but i would just find a freeware program to do it for you.
I feel so low tech........ No Ideal guess I need to open the manual

Actually, I am still waiting for permission to load the software into my computer so I can start using the Palm I got for Christmas . . . a year ago

Well, if you want som Oompah music in MP3 format... :P
If you have a PC (and we know you do) that has a CD player, you can use a program called "Audiograbber" to pull the music from the PC's CD Player onto your harddrive. It will give you several file format options, including MP3. You can download Audiograbber HERE.
Now we know you'll only be doing this with music from CDs that you own...
Yes Sir! Thank You Sir!
Also, incase I am over for a tech day or anything POS, I will bring my second HD it has a few gigs of MP3s I wouldnt mind bringing them over to transfer.
stay away from Kazaa and the other file swapping programs like it.

Kazaa puts more crap on your pc than you want (or know). Spyware... Use the free Spybot to clean up your pc's and keep them clean. Mathews200x hipped me to that one.
Apples "itunes" is great for ripping cds into mp3s. Great for organizing them, and it includes a burn program if you have a cd burner. It's free too! I think you can find it at www.itunes.com .
and you could use your neighbor's wireless connection that is wide open... Send the Feds to his/her house
NOTE: I said "could" not should...
