Import the mp3 directly in audacity ;)

Audacity might still be doing some conversion internally on 
import/export from/to mp3 (didn't check and my ears didn't notice any 
difference).

Audacity is meant for advanced editing, it's likely overkill if one just 
needs to join several files.

Kind regards,
Andrei
