Rip Vinyl (Ask *)

So, I've got this
And with my turntable I turn it into nice

0100101110101010010111...

But that's all WAV files. So I'm trying to figure out how to best turn it into some nice MP3 (MP3 since that's what, if I put it on a data disc, I can listen to it in my car, versus Ogg which I can't).

So, what should I use to go to WAV->MP3? Command-line LAME? Or is there some front-end I can use to batch a bunch of files? The problem with Audacity (which I use to rip from the turntable) is that it doesn't seem to do other encodings than 128Kbps (yuck). Or can it? And should I go for VBR? If so, what rate? And a Windows solution would be best.

I'm starting to get a backlog of LPs and 10"s that I need to turn over :P
