Why editing WAV in Audacity is better than MP3

When you import MP3 into Audacity, edit it, and export as MP3 again, the audio gets compressed twice — each time discarding more data. Starting from WAV means your edits are lossless until the final export. Convert your MP3 to WAV here, edit in Audacity, then export however you need.
