Burning mp3?

Options
Sorry if i seem thick. I can use media player to burn mp3 files that seem to transform into normal cd files when I burn them to cd. How do i keep them in MP3 format so I can get many songs on 1 disk?

Thanks

    using cd writing software (NERO) and create a data disc not a music cd.

    as above, be sure to burn as a data disk, WMP is defaulted to convert mp3 to wav (audio files). there are numerous free software downloads that will allow you to burn a data disk if you dont have NERO or any other cd/dvd burning software.
