For WindowsMediaPlayer, we usually just regard it as the audio and video player or media file manager that comes with Windows system, but we don't know that it has other functions that are usually ignored. Converting CD into MP3 is one of them. So what can I do to grab MP3 from CD with it?
First, put the music CD into the computer drive, run WindowsMediaPlayer, and click the rip button at the top of the interface.

Here, you only need to set the format as MP3, and other options are set according to your personal needs. Select the song you want to rip with the mouse, and then click the "Start Ripping" button. After ripping, you can find these MP3 files in the output folder.
