are there any programs that i can open my mp3 files with and make the file smaller, without taking out part of the music so that i can fit more on my mp3/phone?

Lower the bitrate of the mp3.

re-encode from source.

if you re-encode from MP3, you'll magnify the audio artifacts and it will sound pretty bad.

iTunes doesn't work. iTunes wasn't ment for that functionallity. Go look for a program online, a music editor, or something like that. Also look for a compressor. WinRAR will compress for you, after it makes the rar archive, just simply take the file out of the archive.

^ I did the exact same thing a while ago and now I fit more music in my MP3 player than the music that was in the ad.

What do you mean? iTunes is perfectly capable of re-encoding a song using a different bitrate.
