[NTLUG:Discuss] how can I copy the last 'x' minutes of a MP3 file?

Jack,
  I think I would look at http://www.mpgedit.org/mpgedit/
It has the virtue of not have to re-encode to make edits.  It is limited
to just editing and that soulds like what you want.
 Personally, I use GoldWave(get version 4.26, not version 5) to do this
kind of thing.  I record programs every week and same them as MP3.  I do
my recordings as wav file and edit then encode.  If you record radio
shows, set the capture rate to 11KHz mono and you'll save a lot of bits
with no real quality loss.  I am learning Audacity, but I am not quick
enough on it to use for my every week programs.  Hopefully, soon.
Good luck,
Ralph
