I know how to rip cd tracks to mp3 format, but what do I do to go the
other way - .mp3 to cd format so they can be played in my car stereo
which doesn't play .mp3's? Is this possible?
You can also use XMMS to do this. As per the handbook at
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-mp3.html:

16.3.4 Decoding MP3s

In order to burn an audio CD from MP3s, they must be converted to a
non-compressed WAV format. Both XMMS and mpg123 support the output of MP3 to an
uncompressed file format.

Writing to Disk in XMMS:

1.

Launch XMMS.

2.

Right-click on the window to bring up the XMMS menu.

3.

Select Preference under Options.

4.

Change the Output Plugin to ``Disk Writer Plugin''.

5.

Press Configure.

6.

Enter (or choose browse) a directory to write the uncompressed files to.

7.

Load the MP3 file into XMMS as usual, with volume at 100% and EQ settings turned
off.

8.

Press Play -- XMMS will appear as if it is playing the MP3, but no music will be
heard. It is actually playing the MP3 to a file.

9.

Be sure to set the default Output Plugin back to what it was before in order to
listen to MP3s again.
