Subject: Re: [Nature Recordists] Transfer to PC MP3

I have an Sony MZ-R700 minidisc recorder and wish to transfer tracks
to my PC via an audio cable and the standard mic input socket.

I heard there are third party software applications that will record
to PC AND save files simultaneously as MP3. IOW you don't have to
convert from WAV to MP3 as a separate step. Can anyone please advise
me regarding any shortcomings of this, and which software for the
purpose is considered best?

In such a case, how does the quality of the final MP3 file compare
subjectively with that of a file that had been transferrred direct
from a Hi-MD recorder as PCM and then converted to MP3?
