Converting Cd Audio to mp3

Been having a bit of warfare trying to place my music on Itunes to use with the Pinnacle software with no luck. The music I download from my CD's were converted to AAC and after much effort I found out I couldn't use those.

Now how can I convert my CD's into Mp3 or any other format that Pinnacle will recognise? Do I need a special software?

I thought there would be something as simple as that. Will give it a try, Is one track at a time or can you do a whole album?

Erm stick your CD in, the tracks come up, select them all and rip to HD. IIRC it's dead simple.

Thanks Woz though I can't find any way to RIP the CD. I find out I have to buy an extra program for $9.99 to allow me to do this.

iTunes will convert cd to MP3's and its free.
I used Pinnicle some time ago and you had to get the bit rate correct for it to play the music

Wouldn't allow me. My music on itube was converted to aac. Once converted it will not 'convert' it to MP3. I thought it would and tried it today to find out it wouldn't.
One way around it as I'm finding out it is to burn to Audio CD and then windows media to MP3 however there is loss of quality.
Very frustating but that's the best I figured out to get arounf it. My original music on CD's that I want to use on Pinnacle I will use windows to burn to windows media audio or to Mp3. Which one from these should I burn to?

Hi I use freerip
FreeRIP: rip audio CD tracks to Wav, MP3, Ogg Vorbis files for free
it's a free download and my daughter has also been able to use the tracks she's ripped on her Ipod. Hope this helps.

CDEX is a free CD ripping program, simple to use, you set the bit rate etc.
