If you want to make an MP3 audio disc that you can erase and use again, but will only play in MP3-compatible players, then get the pack you linked to. If you want to copy audio CDs from files on your PC that will play in any CD player, then get CDRs.

the ones you have linked to are cdrw ie you can record over them again and again and thats why they are prob so expensive. if you dont need to rerecord on discs get cdr.

Loads of places sell CD-R's for much cheaper than that.

Even PC World

What will the person receiving the songs be playing the CD on?

Are you burning songs you've bought on-line or songs you've ripped from CD's?

pack of 10 for fiver.
diiference between cdr and cdrw is that cdr can only be recorded once cdrw can be wiped and re written hence the rw.
these are perfect for what u need.

I would prefer CD-RW in case I make a mistake!

If it's via a PC, then it doesn't really matter what format you burn the songs as. If they plan to play it in the car or on a hi-fi you'll probably have to burn the songs as audio files as many normal CD players don't play MP3 files.

I'd go with the other recommendations here and just buy CDR's, considering the Argos link above gives you 50 CDR's for less money than 10 CDRW's. You could surely pick up a jewel case for it somewhere if you really needed it.
