Not a mac guy, but you can try this (http://appleclinic.wordpress.com/2008/04/10/convert-ape-cue-to-mp3-osx/) tutorial. I don't know if you have the cue file.

w/o the cue file, i usually just decode to aiff and then split manually using Audacity or similar

I have the cue file....so what do I do with that? I don't mean to be so dim but I have never dealt with this before so I thought I'd ask for help.

stop once you've split to aiff's [unless you wanna compress to mp3, which i doubt]

I'm so disappointed to discover that Damien Hirst is not a member of TTD.

One of his most famous works was Mother And Child Divided (http://sarahwilson.files.wordpress.com/2008/12/motherandchild460.jpg) Hirst's first major international presentation was in the Venice Biennale in 1993 with the work, Mother and Child Divided, a cow and a calf cut into sections and exhibited in a series of separate vitrines. He curated the show Some Went Mad, Some Ran Away in 1994 at the Serpentine Gallery in London, where he exhibited Away from the Flock (a sheep in a tank of formaldehyde). On 9 May, Mark Bridger, a 35 year old artist from Oxford, walked in to the gallery and poured black ink into the tank, and retitled the work Black Sheep. He was subsequently prosecuted, at Hirst's wish, and was given two years' probation. The sculpture was restored at a cost of £1,000.
