[newbie] mp3 encoding

[Kevin Fonner]

I have been looking at Grip and it's interface seems simple and easy to 
use however I noticed it talks to other mp3 encoding programs.  None of 
them seem to be installed.  I was wondering which one would be best to 
do mp3's?  lame?  bladeenc? I3enc?   mp3encode?  their are others also 
listed.

Thanks
Kevin
