Convert A Cd To An Mp3 File

Whether a music professional or a casual enthusiast, there is little distinction when it comes to turning your favorite compact disc into an MP3 (digital music file). So, I'm here to hopefully demystify this once and for all. Hey, I still have issues with TiVo scheduling!


Instructions


1. Power up your computer. Insert a music CD into your disc drive.


2. Open iTunes. The default setting in the iTunes preferences should open automatically upon inserting the CD. If not, manually open the iTunes application. Note: I will be using an Apple computer for the following examples.


3. After inserting the CD, Click the "Import CD" button in the lower right-hand corner of the iTunes window.


4. You can monitor the progress of the import in the iTunes progress bar.


5. Once the import is complete, click on the "Music" tab located in the top left-hand corner of the iTunes window. If you scroll to the name of the artist on the CD, you will be able to locate the newly-imported songs.
