Hi Petrus,

Yes you can also get DVDs that hold approximately 8.5GB

Dual layer dvd.

However if you are wanting to play these books as audio then it’s not the cd 
capacity but the playing time.

The cd size worked to I think from memory the 650MB cd was 80 minutes approx. 
playing time,

So depending on which way you  want to play the files  might be worth looking 
at the way you wish to write the data to the disks and dvd’s don’t always play 
in optical drive players.

Thanks Tim,
It tells me that has 6148 bites and if my brain is working correctly which 
isn’t a guarantee I make that  6.1MB? I’m pretty sure I can buy blank DVDs that 
can take about 4.6GB  so I’ll look online to order some of those. I was hoping 
they would be available in the Apple store but I think blank DVDs are to old 
technology for apple to worry about.

Hi,

On a Mac, if you insert the CD into your drive, it should show up on the 
Desktop as an ejectable item.  Either open the Untitled CD and check in the 
Status bar for the amount of remaining space (you may need to press cmd-slash 
to make the Status bar visible), or press cmd-i to Get Info on the CD and the 
available space will be listed.

Later…
