Default Editing MP3s.
How is this done? Basically space is at a premium on my MP3 player, and I have a lot of albums with hidden tracks, ie the last song finishes and then there's 20 odd minutes of silence before the hidden track plays. 20 minutes of silence uses up a lot of space. I'd like to split the MP3 into two files with all the silence taken out. Is there a free program I can download to do this?

If you don't mind doing it manually Audacity is free and can edit MP3 files:
Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder

Otherwise there's a load of MP3 editors listed here:
Windows Editors downloads @ MP3Machine

Dunno what any of them are like

I'll try that, I have some form of Audacity on my computer anyway which I use as a 4-track, but I've never actually learned to work it properly.

I think you need to install LAME, or LAMElib to get Audacity to export your editted mp3 (it can import it fine though.) I just export wav and encode as mp3 in iTunes, cos I'm lazy and it was also nice to have finally found a use for it!

Oh, that's on Mac BTW. iTunes on Windows may be entirely pointless.
