Ripping tracks and 8+ y.o. CD player

oldwiring

For a friend, who has an 8 y.o. stand alone CD player (possibly 10 or more as he got it S/H:D), I have ripped some tracks. Thing is, as his player is quite "mature", I am not sure of the best file format to burn it to.

Any advice, so he can play both on the player and his cptr? Thanks.

mp3 should be fine because they get converted anyway i think

If you burn a CD from MP3s using say, Windows Media Player, you just say Burn Audio CD. It will create a standard Digital CD (not MP3 any more). You need to burn to a CD-ROM not a CD-RW of course.

If you want to play the tracks on a stand alone CD player then you will have to burn the the CD with CDA file format. (CDA stands for Compact Disk Audio)

Note: CDA files don't really exist.
