A friend of mine gave me a CD with a collection of her personal

files? Also, how can I convert those WAV files to a MP3? From what
I've read, I need lame to convert WAV to MP3. But an apt-cache search
lame shows a lot of items, none of which look exactly like what I'm
looking for.
rip cd to wav using grip & then convert to ogg:

why not ogg instead of mp3? ogg isn't encumbered by patents, like mp3 is, it
sounds great, & almost anything on your linux box will play it. so you
wouldn't use lame, you'd use oggenc.
if you want the good (re: illegal 'cause of stupid copyright laws & the
willingness of congress to bend over for the entertainment cabals) software
for multimedia, add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:
# Marillat
deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ sid main
then:
apt-get update
then try this:
apt-get install libdvdcss2 okle ogle w32codecs mplayer-586
bam! now you can play dvds & most windows-based multimedia. okle is a dvd
player for kde; ogle for gnome. mplayer plays everything, including dvds.
there's a million other great things from Marillat's repository. too bad our
unjust laws make 'em illegal.

Scott or anyone,
Is their a way to play ogg files on an iPod? Scott, before you flame me,
I did not let one drop of dust out of my wallet. It was a gift.
