yeah, pretty much any audio editing program will work, you just don't want to have to re-encode the mp3. a good experiment to try would be to reencode at the same bitrate, and compare the quality to the original mp3, and see if you notice any difference.

as i understand, mp3s can even be split using a hex editor, just chopping off bits until you get what you want. obviously this is an extreme example, but it proves that re-encoding is not necessary.

the mp3splitter program does just that: splits, but doesnt reencode. thats all you need.
