It's really easy. Install the software of your choice, pop in a cd, and tell the software to rip and convert.

There are tons of software titles you can use to do this, but I personally use Exact Audio Copy. It's free, accurate, automatically gets ID tag data, and can generate MP3s directly.

If you use that software, you might want to change a few settings like converted file format (MP3, WMA, etc), quality (I personally use 320 bit rate for highest quality at the expense of filesize, but even then, each song is typically 2MB/minute max) ,converted file location, etc.

Once you insert the disc, wait a few seconds for the file list to show up. Then, click the little "freedb" icon to automatically retrieve song, artist, etc data from the online database, then click the applicable button on the left side of the window (the "CMP" option most likely).

I went to best buy & bought a scan disc 4g mp3 player. I tried to load a song but can not figure it out. so i am taking it back tomorrow, & may just get a small radio , i'm not sure yet. My landlord said he might change my phone plan & get me a smart phone when he gets back from a 3 week vacation to Australia. I'm sure im probably not doing something right with the mp3 player. But i think i will just go get my money back. Until someone can come over & acttually so me how to do this.
