    Hi, Just copy (burn) your 140 or so tracks to the cd as data (mp3) and don't convert to music.
    Media player ? ? I'm not at my Vista m/c.

    Media player should give you the option to create an MP3 disc, it does in XP and can't see them removing the feature.

    Stupid question but will your car CD player read MP3 CDs?
    I don't believe and I never did that two wrongs make a right

    You need to burn them as a data CD instead of an audio CD; I don't use Windows, but there should be an option either when you go to burn the CD, or in the preferences.
