How to Cut Music Using Itunes
Though iTunes primarily organizes and plays audio files, it also contains basic audio editing tools that you can use to cut the length of songs in your music collection. This function is useful for removing excessive song intros and outros, highlighting portions of audio for rehearsal purposes, or isolating your favorite podcast interviews and online radio segments for future reference.

Ugh, but I need to cut about 3 parts in the song that are all a few seconds (about 30) away. Is there any way to do that?

It makes the track play the right amount of time, but actual file size is unchanged.
