I use this great tool: http://www.compuphase.com/mp3/mp3loop.zip

You give it a WAV file and it returns an MP3 file which can be perfectly (and gaplessly!) played using Sound's standard play method - e.g. :

var manyLoops:int = 1000*1000; // a Million is a lot :)

You can also take the output MP3 file and re-convert it to a WAV (using AudioCity for example) - then you have a gapless WAV (which can work great inside your FLA file)

Hope it helps
