so you want a free MP3 encoder?  i just found one, and
i used it to encode a treat you'll find below. 

first, get   http://hem.passagen.se/ceel/l3enc.zip
and unzip it.  (only 49K !)

then get     http://www.modindata.se/cwenc12.zip
and unzip it.  (only 312K !)

the former is the dos-based encoder, while the latter
is a simple windows 95 interface which employs the
encoder.  

after unzipping the cwenc12.zip file, run cwenc12.exe.
help the program locate l3enc.zip and you'll be encoding
in a matter of seconds, assuming you have some .wav files
stored on your hard drive, as i did.  the file i had
on hand is from carpet bomb 002, and it took up 40.6 megs
in .wav format.  the MP3 file is only 3.68 megs, and it
sounds damn good.  to get it, visit 
     http://www.microlink.net/~mlee/unagi.html
right click on the song title, and select "save link as."
enjoy !
