If you have the latest Windows Media Player installed, that can do it for you-press file then copy, then copy from audio CD and it will bring up the tracks on your CD-make sure all the boxes are ticked and then hit the copy button-by default, it puts the tracks into your 'My Music' folder . It also saves it in Windows own .wma format, similar to mp3, but makes smaller files-The standard setting will use about 30mb for a full CD's worth of music. Plenty of other ways of doing it, too, but this is the simplest if it's just for listening pleasure A program like Audio Catalyst can do both operations for you in one go-I think you can still download a free evaluation copy of the web for it. THere are plenty of others that will do it too, just do a search for 'CD Rippers' on a downloads site. I personally use Exact Audio Copy (EAC) which is also available for free.
