The only free MP3 encoder for the Classic OS. Works like a charm.

Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?2huaer315eegear (542 kb) v1.4

BladeEnc is a free, cross-platform, console-based MP3 encoder, based on the ISO reference code. It is mostly intended for high quality encoding in high bitrates.

First download is for Mac OS Classic v1.3
Second download is v1.4 Mac OS 7.5.3 to 9
Third download is for Mac OS X (PowerPC only).

Compatibility:

MacOS 7.5.3 or later
PowerMac
1.7 MB of free RAM

BladeEnc overwrites files with the same name as the output file
Input file names must be less than 28 characters
Cannot specify output file (mp3) name, though the original BladeEnc supports that
Poor support for raw PCM encoding options
BladeEnc will try to encode any kind of file thinking they are RAW samples (if the file isn't in AIFF or WAV format)
Don't set BladeEnc's memory allocation below 1700 kB or it will crash
