Does anyone know of any good freeware software out there that works well to rip MP3's from a CD? If not a point to another, more MP3 related, fourms might be good too.

-Thanks

iTunes.

just go into the import settings and change it from aac to mp3 and pick your quality from 64 kbps to 320 kbps
 
google "FreeRipMp3"
 
I recommend CDex, as it supports arbitrary codecs in addition to mp3.
