Bearing in mind how many you can fit on a CD, let alone DVD, i'd make sure it can handle folders, and multi-session CDs. So burn off a disk with all those, and you know you won't end up disappointed.
Yes good advice.
Unfortunatly I havent got a cd burner yet, so cannot make one up.
I was also worried about what bitrate to record mp3s at that would be standard for most players.
Am thinking of buying a made up system, just for burning mp3 off my cd collection. Built mainly for sound, rather than graphics or the net. Cd 2 cdr, hiqualilty sound card and large HD, plus memory and processor all in a mini case.
