martinmac Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Shouldnt be a problem Stuey, Roxio is pretty good at prompts. Quote
stuey Posted January 11, 2008 Author Posted January 11, 2008 so its a step bystep idiot proof thing is it................ Quote
martinmac Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Pretty much so, as I remember you will be given options at each stage. If it doesnt work just try again. Quote
M13KYF Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 just use windows media player using the RIP function . It will convert music audio cd's into mp3 files( check the options to make sure its set a maximum rate 192) Then brun a data cd using roxio Quote
stuey Posted January 11, 2008 Author Posted January 11, 2008 ok........ il have a bash............. Quote
sinbad Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Yeah, its simple as Martin says. Ive got loads of blanks so try at your hearts content and i'll send you some out if you run out. Quote
AndySpak Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Are you trying to convert your CDs to MP3 or save MP3's onto a CD? Just to be clear... If its CD's into MP3, when you insert a music CD into your CD-Drive on your computer, Windows Media Player will offer to rip the music to MP3 for you. Its a very simple process. If you're looking to burn MP3's on to a CD to play in your car CD player, you will need to use some software such as Roxio or Nero. I use Nero but the differences are all six of one and half a dozen of the other. Quote

GIXXERUK Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Just burn them as data discs not audio stu and they'll be fine Quote
martinmac Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Not much bass value on Glen Campbell and Dolly Parton Quote

AndySpak Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I hate MP3's, you lose the most important bit of the music IMO. Deep BASS!!!! Quote
H5 Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I hate MP3's, you lose the most important bit of the music IMO. Deep BASS!!!! And the software always seems to introduce floor noise too.... Quote
GIXXERUK Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 i find you lose mid range more than anything still a brilliant format for its size i use musicmatch to rip but there lots of free rippers on line Quote
Sarnie Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I hate MP3's, you lose the most important bit of the music IMO. Deep BASS!!!! A man after my own heart Quote
