For all your MP3 needs go to http://www.raum.com/mpeg/, by far the 
best player and converter is SoundApp at version 2.5 or so check 
http://www.versiontracker.com, it will convert from and to most any 
sound type (it has "two rocks to bang together" for Windoze WAV 
files).  And, the latest version of Quicktime should also decode MP3s.

Not neccesarily supposedly the newest version of Toast can do it, 
but, there are some bugs, for more money there's Jam (by the Toast 
people http://www.adaptec.com/products/solutions/cdrec.html) and 
WaveBurnere by Emagic (a good Geraman music software group) that 
after a demo at MacWorld 2000; I was quite impressed 
(http://www.emagic.de/english/products/software/waveburner.html).
