I'm confused about where to ask this, so if there's a more appropriate thread please point me that way...

I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64. I have a quit smoking seminar video in .avi format. I want to convert the .avi files to .mp3 so I can burn them onto a CD. The seminar is for my mom, and in skimming the videos I realized she's not going to sit in front of a TV watching a man pace a small stage for 4 hours. Plus, there is tons of desync going on which makes it even harder to watch. The content is really good though, so I want to make it into audio CDs she can just listen to.

So, is there a goon-favorite program for converting .avi ---> .mp3? I'm hoping for something easy to use (I'm bad at computer), and has no spyware or weird crap bundled with it. Free would be nice.

Not sure about a dedicated converter tool, but if you have VLC you can use that - do file > convert, pick a source and output file, and set the profile to the Audio - MP3 one. There's an options button next to it if you want to change some settings (or you can make a new profile to tweak)

Worked perfectly! Thanks.
