render to wave and use a mp3 encoding program to encode it to mp3

google for some free ones or get something like wavelab.

Mac or PC ?

Render audio to disk (be sure to make sure the right and left markers at the top of the arrangement represent the beginning bar and end bar of the song first)

then convert with an mp3>wav converter

for PC things such as CDEX (PC) , Audiograbber (PC) or Switch (pc or mac) do a good job for free.

CDEX - http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/
AUDIOGRABBER - http://www.audiograbber.com-us.net/
SWITCH - http://www.nch.com.au/switch/

If you have Cubase or SOundforge etc you can also import the wave/aiff file rendered in Live and export as mp3/real audio/ogg vorbis etc.

I'm hoping that Live gets MP3 writing capabilities soon. Not because of the odd track here and there, but because I would love to be able to master all tracks, or have it save the whole composition to mp3's so that I can share tracks with friends across the internet and allow them to mix and tweak the overall composition, add their parts in and so on without spending all night uploading and them spending all day downloading.

Internet friendliness is the future, Live should be all about the collaboration.
