Default Those who burned .MP3 CDs...

How did you do it?
I haven't burned a CD in a long time. Temporarily I have to burn some because for some reason when I plug my iPod to my computer, it just freezes and shuts down my computer .
Also, when you burn .mp3, you can fit in hundreds of songs right?

Nero Express => MUSIC => MP3 DISC






Nero Express does a very good job of creating MP3 CD's from your playlists. Let's say you have a playlist created by Winamp or Windows Media Player (M3U file extension), but the mp3 files are scattered in different folders. Instead of the traditional drag and drop each individual file into the burn folder, just drag and drop the M3U playlist file directly into Nero Express. It will locate all the files and burn them to the CD for you.

For some reason I put the songs in order but when i burn it, it sorts alphabetically.

And I hate how it locks out when you drive (the folders and files)

You can burn mp3 from your itunes. You'll have to go to "Advance" setting and look under "Burning" which allows to choose if you want to burn regular audio CDs or mp3 discs. Keep in mind that if you purchased a song from itunes, it will be protected, meaning, you cannot convert the song directly to mp3. You'll have to burn an Audio CD first with the songs you purchased directly from itunes store and then load those songs back to your itunes library. Hope this helps.

What would happen if you burned mp3 files (data disc) on to a DVD? will it read it?
