[TriLUG] .wav to .mp3

Hi,
  I don't know much about gtoaster, but I do know that CD-A is PCM by nature
(same as .wav), so converting from .wav to .mp3 seems a step in the wrong
direction to me.  Does gtoaster require .mp3 format?  It must convert the
mp3 back to raw PCM before burning an audio disc, so that seems strange to
me.

(For example, way back in the day, Adaptec [now Roxio] Easy CD Creator
required .WAV for burning audio CDs; only in later versions did it include
its own MP3 decoder)
