What would be a good program to cut an mp3 file, there is a part of a song that i don't like (The beginning) how can i cut that out?

Try audacity it works for me.

I use sonic foundry sound forge, http://www.sonicfoundry.com/products...orgefamily.asp
I'm not sure if the price interests you as it's an expensive but very good one, not just for cutting out stuff, but it does a great job.
Try the demo and it should be able to open it and let you cut that part out.

audacity will get the job done...and sound forge will get the job done incredibly well.

i've used audacity before and it was alright. but i use sound forge and i swear by it, it is just an amazing program.

also if it's in mp3 format you might need to decode it first...

Thanks guys! I'll look into it a bit later and download them.

I'm looking for free or a trial since i only need one song done

well if you're looking to get the job done with flying colors, try ACID Pro 3.0, or perhaps kill it with Cakewalk Home Studio XP

they'll only run you up for a few hundred a piece...

How much of the song do you want to cut out? You could just simply ignore it and skip ahead.

You could always use a trial edition of Syntrillium's Cool Edit Pro. I've used it before and liked it very much.

Now, if you really want to incinerate that mp3, you could always decode it and import it into Digidesign's Pro Tools HD. Did I mention that the basic unit starts at $10,000 US?
