High Rick,
You can't burn a CD in MP3 format in Windows Media Player.
But you can rip a music disc to MP3 in Windows Media Player.
Marvin has an older boom box, you are correct, older CD players will not
play rewritable CD's.
But they can play CDR's.
Those files will need to be converted to wave and then burned to CD in order
for an older CD player to play it.
My best regards.
John.

Hi Marv: A couple of things I saw mentioned on list. In Media Player make
sure you have the burn options set to music. Also, I am not sure about how
you do it but I think they need to be, perhaps not, mp3 format and I do
not know how to set that if it is not already set. Another thing, check
your burn speed and set it to slow or medium the default is fast. My
Brother In Law said you can not play ReWritable CDs when burned on your
Boom Box but I've not checked that out either. I just looked at Media
Player and tabbed around finding some things that I mentioned. I could not
find the graphic equalizer or the way to set the bass up since my copy to
my tape player had a low bass and I could not mess with it in the sound
card either. Anyway, keep notes since I will be trying to burn something
real soon myself.

Subject: purchasing blank cds
hi.
well had good and bad and just shit house with burning cds this week.
now run out of all of them.
will not be getting any cheap and nasty crappy cds.
and will be getting formatted, rewriteable.
was and managed to use windows media player to burn.
then in cd player, the sharp ghetto blaster.
the cd started skipping, jumping, etc.
so out of cds.
so is harvey norman a good place to purchase blank cds.
and what do they cost and what sizes do you get batches of 20, 50s.
got over 800 tracks on my hard drive.
need to burn to cd.
do not want to pay and arm and a leg for a brand new cd ghetto boom box,
when the old one which i have had for about 20 years is still working
perfectly.
do not want to go to an ipod.
not the most delicate with things.
just plain clumsy me.
and do not want to spend a fortune on getting one with voice over.
so the blank cds is the cheapest option.
and some times the vista burning wizard comes up, and then it does not.
able to create a play list, add to the play list then burn.
so what should i pay.
any specific brands.
Marvin.
