Downloading from the internet To get MP3 files from the Internet, use a search engine to locate sites with MP3 content. You can also try out these sites (web sites listed here are correct at the time of this document's release): It is illegal to encode MP3 files for trade or sale unless you have the express or explicit permission of the copyright holder(s). ❍ NOMADWorld http://www.NOMADworld.com ❍ SoundClick.com http://www.soundclick.com ❍ Epitonic.com http://www.epitonic.com ❍ AMP3.com http://www.amp3.com ❍ ArtistOne.com http://www.artistone.com ❍ Soundbuzz.com http://www.soundbuzz.com Follow the instructions on the site and download the music files to your computer. Ripping from a CD The first phase in making an MP3 file is extracting audio data from an audio CD. To extract audio data, you will need a CD-ROM drive that can extract digital audio data, and a program known as a Ripper. With Creative MediaSource Organizer, you can rip tracks from most audio CDs. This program uses the CD-ROM drive to read the audio tracks from the audio CD and stores it on your hard disk. The time needed for a successful audio extraction depends on: ❍ CD-ROM drive speed ❍ defects, like scratches on the audio CD ❍ error-checking features on the CD-ROM drive Getting Started 2-8
