Hi J - MP3 files are data CDs, and will only play on ordinary CD players that have the capability to play these files. Although more and more home CD players can play MP3 files, it's far from true to say that they all can, and older players won't be able to.
If then you want a music cd that will play on all home systems, you need to hook up your cassette player to the line-in on your PTR1, and then hit the record button, and you'll hear "Please wait", and you'll be given feedback on how hte PTR1 is set up for recording. If you then press the number 5 key, it will tell you that you are set to record from line-in, so press the pound key [right of 0], and then you can use the 4 and 6 keys to move to the music menu, and in there you can either select MP3 128, which like it says, will give you an MP3 file that you could play on your PTR1, in your PC, or any MP3 player. Recording in this format, you will get something like 12 hours on a blank disk, in reasonable stereo recording. If though, like I think, you want a propper music CD, then you'll need to select 44.1 MHZ sterio from the music menu, this will only give you about 74 minutes of recording, but of CD quality, but this does depend on the quality of your source recording. This disk, you can then play in all CD players. Hope all the above is correct and helps.
