the solution is in the bit rate.
open your file in Audacity.
open the FILE menu then PREFERENCES
in the mp3 export section is a setting for bitrate - probably 160 or 128
reduce it to 32 and ok the setting.
now export the file as an .mp3
30 minutes is about 6 - 7 Mb.
many old radio shows are archived in this format where quality is not an
issue.
