iTunes will do it, there’s an option to choose format in the preferences.
Better to rip to AAC or ALAC though, iTunes mp3 encoder isn’t very good.
Problem with comverting to .aac, rather than MP3 is mp3 players other than Apple ones probably won’t like the files and you’ll have to convert them all over again…..
I use Windows Media Player.
I use Media Monkey for ‘dragging and dropping’ music onto my iPod. I think that MediaMonkey only gives you a certain amount of conversions, before you have to pay for it. It’s not massively expensive though.
I have used iTunes in the past on another computer, but I found it was very slow to open, slowed my computer down massively and always wanted to do updates. Haven’t installed it on my current laptop, as can’t be doing with the aggro.
Plenty of people reckon it runs fine though; I just went off it and don’t really wanna get re-aquainted with it…
