MP3 File Help For Technophobe

Sylvester

Hi

So, MP3........should I be able to burn MP3 to CD, then play on a personal stereo?

Or do I need to convert the MP3's to another kind of audio file before burning?

Thanks

You can burn MP3's to CD's but they won't play on a normal stereo.

You'll need to covert them to .cda

Thanks.

Long gone are the good old days when you could download something and burn to CD and play away from the PC.

I'm too old

Thanks for the reply

Make? Model? Plenty of players will decode mp3 from a data-CD. For a music-CD ('red-book' standard) you'll need to transcode the MP3 and it'll sound rubbish. Burrrn will do the transcode and write a CD.

It's just a basic one

I will try this burrrn program, thanks

Burrrn has worked a treat, thanks
