Only the most confused people would copy from CD to MD by encoding the CD track in MP3 format first. Unless you don't own a digital linked cd- mdplayer, but do own a soundcard with a digital out. (And can't make the CD work directly with your Soundcard) If I were in that situation, then I

that is misleading. by "converting the tracks to .wav", i assume you mean that the cd should be ripped to .wav files. but it sounds as if you're saying that something would be gained by converting mp3's to wav's. THAT wouldn't help anything. The person I was responding to was making MP3s

[snip] Looking from a purely technical standpoint, ATRAC beats MP3. ATRAC is fully reverse and forward compatible, and is constantly updated with new revisions. MP3 has been the same since the MPEG1 Audio standard was made back in the late '80s. -- Robert J. Lynn, Jr. Brainbench Certified

have recorded a few downloaded MP3's onto MD, and they don't sound good at all.
