Reading mp3 files into Matlab

I have used a script/function called "wavread.m" successfully with .wav files. I am trying to use a script/function called "mp3read.m" which I found a reference to on the web. When I convert the .wav file that I had successfully read with wavread.m to an .mp3 file and try "mp3read.m", I get a "can't open file" error.

Does anyone have a suggestion for reading .mp3 files? Apparently, either "mp3read.m" doesn't work or I am doing something wrong (probably the latter).

Thanks.

Sorry. I finally followed the directions of Alfredo F. Franco and extracted to files to an appropriate folder and put the folders into the path and it worked.
