Media Monkey will run after 30 days if you substitute the official lame_enc.dll for the timed-out one in Media Monkey.
A good download link and instructions for a similar situation in Audacity are here.
Just unzip, get lame_enc.dll and replace the one in C:\Program Files\Media Monkey.
For what it’s worth, you can also rip to .mp3 in Windows Media Player: better tags, worse encoder. You change the settings under Rip. Right-click on the very top line if you don’t see Tools.
Or if you want, here’s the last freeware dbPoweramp..
