Splitting long (hours) MP3 files by sound breaks

[lostinlodos]

I was wondering if any of the Video Help Gods had any suggestions on some software I could try.
I'm looking to split recorded (legal) internet and satellite radio dumps that are currently in MP3 format at the pause-breaks. Similar to the way audio tape players can skip "tracks" by listening for gaps. Streams range from around an hour to 8 hours plus. I want to split them to single tracks per song.
Suggestions?

mp3DirectCut has a pause detector. Also, Audacity has a silence finder.

Use mp3DirectCut if at all possible. It cuts MP3s losslessly.
Other editors have to decode and reencode.

As well as its pause detection (on "Special" menu) you can just look at the waveform and do it visually.

Note that it can only have one file open at a time; but you can open several copies of the program, and cut and paste file segments between them.

Thank you; I'll give it a try. I don't care much for editing, just something that I can set to go and walk away from and let it do it on it's own. As long as the resulting MP3s are in the majority of being close to accurate in silence detection, I don't care much beyond that. Just trying to put together an MP3-CD to play later.
