Yes but burning an mp3 to an audio cd means you have to specifically tell
your program to make it an audio cd. Another words copying an mp3 to a cd
and hitting the burn button will give a cd with an mp3 on it. This is fine
if I'm going to use it on a computer or such. If I want a standard player
to play it I have to tell my burning program that I am making an audio cd.
It will automatically convert the mp3 I have selected and make in to a CDA
file.

Brett and list: Just to clarify (and hopefully I've got this right) what
one needs to do is just burn that MP3 file to an "audio" CD; that should
work; at least it has for me (can't say for sure it will sound exactly
like the CD) but my ear doesn't seem to hear it (and my ear isn't that
bad!

cd players do not play wave files so putting wave files on a cd will get
you nowhere. You must burn them as an audio cd which would result in
file names ending in CDA.
You can't copy files to a cd and then expect them to play on a standard
cd player.

thanks, but I have been asked to make standard cds from these mp3
files. Otherwise, I wouldn't do it.

Just a note - ExpressBurn and CDex will burn MP3 files to standard
audio CDs just fine. Converting MP3 files to WAV is known as
transcoding, a process where you convert a lower quality audio file
format to a higher quality one. An MP3 file is compressed, and cannot
be decompressed. So while WAV files that were recorded/ripped as WAV
will sound better than their MP3 counterparts, a WAV file converted
from an MP3 file will sound exactly the same as the MP3 file but have
a larger file size. To sum up, converting MP3 to WAV is completely
pointless.

Hi,
I am wondering why I am not being successful in this venture.
I have some mp3 files that I am asked to put on audio cd in standard
format.
I take the mp3 files, download them, then I use goldwave to save them
as wave files to play on a standard cd player, I also split the file
into tracks.
When I go to burn these onto standard audio cds they won't play, and
I can't figure out why not. I have made sure that the files were
wave files at 44100, 16 byt. and yet the results will play on some
mp3 players, but not standard audio cds.
I have also tried this using cdex, but with the same result. I am
using express burn to burn my wave files. Can anyone think of what I
am doing wrong?
Thanks.
Vinny
