how do i copy music cd's (wav format) to my hard drive and create an
mp3 output to one cd to listen on my car radio?

my system is ubuntu 12.10 64 bit with amd phenom 2 chip and 8 gig ram.

as you know, ubuntu uses rhythmbox to play cd's. works ok. it even
finds the cd play list (from the web?) and then displays the name of
song and author in a spreadsheet-like output. nice.  it can also import to
a
directory but i can't do it. i can create the dir but nothing gets
imported. obviously, i can manually copy the wav files to dir in my
hard disk, however, rhythmbox can't find the play list but can play
the copied wav files.

it also comes with cd burner program called brasero. i can use this
to burn the cd but as far as i can see it does not do conversions
wav-->mp3 format. what program can do this?

any web links will be appreciated.
