You have a boiler in your computer? How old is it?
Quack!

That was me!
I had to shut the computer down to do some boiler repairs but we're up and running now.
Cheers!

ok...great! I learn something every day!
I am partially right that the resultant .CDA files are similar in size to .wavs, I guess....
(My kid has an MP3 player with a 10 gig drive...has several hundred songs already on a little gadget the size of a small tape player!....things change fast!)

CD files are actually .CDA files. Your cd burning software converts .WAV files to .CDA files when you tell it you want to create a music CD, as opposed to a data CD. Maybe some burning software will convert from .mp3 to .CDA. If you have a copy of Sound Forge, the batch converter will allow you to convert from .mp3 to .WAV, and then your burning program takes over from there. I'm sure there are a lot of other ways too. Good luck. Al

hmmm...I understood that the limit to CD capacity WAS just that they were .wavs and took up much more space than MP3s...

a conventional CD, which is .wav files

I don't think so Bill. Conventional CD music files have thier own format (the name escapes me) which are turned into .wav, .aiff. or .mp3 format in computer applications, depending on settings and application. Not so?

the technology to play MP3s *as* MP3s from a CD is fairly new...if you want to burn a conventional CD, which is .wav files, you need to convert them, as alluded to above...several programs will do this, including DBPoweramp, JetAudio, and MusicMatch...it is getting easier all the time.

You will need a special device to play MP3s (in a portable gadget)....those are getting cheaper and more common also...

I use MusicMatch and EasyCD.

But....for a novice, starting from scratch, I now recommend Nero Burning ROM by a German Company.

http://www.nero.com/en/index.html

Caveat - "bootlegged" versions of Nero are a B-- to rip-out (uninstall) by hand....and you will need to rip them out if they don't match the burner.

Have Fun

Yep, Music Match is free and easy, plus it'll convert wav files to mp3 (or vice versa).

I've had great luck burning CDs directly from MusicMatch. Just build a playlist from individual MP3 files and hit the CD button. Nothing to it.

Roisin, your question isn't complete. You need to let us know what computer and what application you're using.

Some programs let you just drag the sound file onto the CD-burining appllication. Some access the CD Burn function right from the OS.

What are you running?

Dunno the software or hardware - RTFM would be the normal tech reaction.

Just guessing - try burn an audio CD from your SW?
