itunes www.apple.com

Be sure to change the file format from .aac to .mp3 though. Scratch LIVE does not read the .aac file format.

Yes, iTunes if you need it to be free.

If you have CD burning software it should also have support for audio CD extraction.

I'd stay away from iTunes. Use something better like Exact Audio Copy....

it's probably encoding them to wma, rather than mp3. use the windows media player help.
