Have you ever used google groups to read the answers?

Audacity (FREEWARE) is EXCELLENT without being weighed down by
(unnecessary for most) features. It supports the free Lame MP3
plugin. I just started using it and it's full featured,
refreshingly compact, extremely clean UI, FAST, and intuitive.

I was (very) skeptical of using a FREE program, but this one really
stands out.

If you MUST pay, I'd get Wavelab Essential. It too is a great
program, but it's $200 and has more (spiffy) features, including
the ability to burn CDs directly, VST and DX plugs, and a lot more.

DISCLAIMER: I am a TOTAL newbie. Any information I proffer is
likely bad advice and will lead you down the path to personal and
financial ruin. The little I know has turned me into a dangerous
weapon of mass destruction.
