Burning MP3 CDs

OK. So now I see from my manual BOTH the single slot and Changer can handle MP3 CDs... What software will be the easiest for me to burn my music in MP3 format.?

When I burn my regular CDs I use Realplayer, because I havent figured out how to do it with Windows Media Player 10. (Even with RealPlayer, for some reason, it depends on which computer I burn on as to whether the Song Titles will appear on Comand or "Track 1" will appear) Obviously I'm looking for something simple, since the kids are away at school. LOL

I use Nero to burn my MP3s, Audio format, & videos onto CD/DVDs. My Euro Comand has no problem playing them.

windows media player is what i use and its pretty simple. open media player click burn and then drag and drop your songs in to the list and your ready to burn.

a trick i learned is to click data cd and what that does is it allows you to add a lot of song files to your cd where audio cd only lets you add up to usually 80 minutes witch is usually around 20-25 songs the data cd will allow you to add 700mb of file space witch is probably over 100 songs on one cd . so there is a huge difference. and the other thing is that it will name the artist and song title if you use data cd. hope you figure it out.

I use Toast. I create folders like "Rock" "Pop"...whatever. Drag the MP3s into those folders. Drag to folders into Toast and burn it as an MP3 CD Works like a charm.

Remember to RTFM, STFF for limitations on # of songs, folder display, etc. for COMAND versus CD changer. HTH

If you're running Windows XP, all you have to do is drag the .MP3 files to your CD-R/W drive (probably D. Then you'll see a balloon pop up on the bottom right of the screen that says somthing like "You have files ready to be written to CD, click here to burn." Click it, burn it, and you're done.
Uncomplicated, featureless and free.

Burn it as a data disc and not an audio. It will burn the files in the mp3 format. I use WMP, Roxio or sonic digitalmedia

If you have itunes and your music was imported in mp3 format you can use itunes to easily make mp3 cd's.
