What's the best way to do this? I have a 64 minute bootleg of a show that I'd like to separate.

Use Winamp to spit it out to a WAV format file and then use a wave editor to split into multiple WAV files. Then re-encode each WAV to an MP3 using Lame (or Razorlame for the GUI version).

To my knowledge, there is no good audio editor that will edit compressed mp3 files. Nero's built-in wave editor can decode .mp3 files for editing automatically, but it can only re-encode at 128 kbit/s.

check out MPEG Audio Scissors, download v. 1.2 from here or if u can find it, v. 1.4. i use it to trim the beginning and ends of mp3s and it's very easy and works great. give it a try, if u need help with it PM me.
