~456KB - server was slow so don't despair.

The interface is a bit confusing in that the channel waveforms aren't
equal in size (a la Audacity). I tried the CD rip with one track and
then saved it in .mp3 format. All worked as advertised.

This is the freeware version that can be converted to a $$ version
that has a few more capabilities (batch file conversion, bookmarks, and
macros). I hesitated to post, but this is too good to consider as
"crippleware", IMHO.

Actually a 739 Kb download.

Even with a screenshot and a description file (text) added to the zip
file it is now only 579KB. Did you download the zip file or an
executable (exe) file?
