I have a little project going that I need some help on. I have been transferring some old LP records to digital format and now I am looking to burn them to CD. The files are currently in WAV format and I would like to do two things with them.

First, I want to burn each album to a CD that can be played in any car or home stereo.

Second, I would like to convert the WAV files to mp3 so I can put them on an iPod (I know the iPod will read WAV files, but I would like to save space with the mp3's).

Does anyone have an opinion (I know you do) on software to do this? I have Roxio on my computer, and when I used it to write a "music CD that can be played in your car or home stereo" it ended up writing some strange 1K files that nothing can read. What gives? Can iTunes convert WAV's to mp3's?

Any help would be appreciated.
