I use easy adaptec ok to copy mp3s to CD and play on a home CD. From Start/Programes/Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4/Create CD(Or use desktop shortcut).From main menu double click on Audio.A window should open up with 3 sections.From Explorer open folder where your mp3s are, you should now see your mp3s. Then drag and drop files you whant to copy to bottom section.Place a blank CD in writer and click create CD.Do not use Adaptec DrectCD to format CD,And try not to use CD-RWs. These may not play on home CD. Good luck Philc

Just Start up Easy Cd Creator, choose Audio, Audio CD and then just drag and drop your MP3 files, insert blank and your set.

Another option is to use Total Recorder, licensed copy can be downloaded from www.highcriteria.com for under $12 dollars. As it records streaming audio in MP3 format, it converts to wav files and records them on your hard disc. The wav files take up quite a bit of room, but once you burn them to a cd you can delete them. It works great for recording from internet radio, Winamp has a lot of radio stations you can listen to and record from. That's what I do to collect music.
If you want to manually convert your MP3 files to WAV you can download MusicMatch Jukebox for free (think the website is www.musicmatch.com). Or you can create your CDs (playable in any CD player if recorded on *CD-R* discs not *CD-RW*) directly from the MusicMatch program without converting them into WAV files first. If you would like to use MusicMatch without them asking you to register, email me. :-)
