that is a very common question actually.

there are many formats that you can burn a CD in. the most common is a standard CD with CD codecs, which almost all CD players can understand. another common format is the great mysterious "MP3 CD" this is basically just a regular CD bust instead of having to convert the MP3's on your computer to a CD codec, you can just leave them as they are. While it is convenient and fast to burn this type of CD, use caution. not all players can read this codec.

now there is another kind of MP3 CD. known as a "data disc." this kind of disc is really not a CD at all but acts more like a storage device. well actually it IS a storage device. this kind of disc is where files are placed directly onto the disc without any formating or conversions. There are few players that can read this type of disc, but, if you have the ability to i suggest that you try it. a great benifit is that instead of your burning restriction being time, it is data size. which is 700MB. about three to four more times as much music as a standard CD.

good luck and i hope i answered your question.

.mp3 is the file format which is most widely used around the globe to store audio files.

MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 Audio Layer III, more commonly referred to as MP3, is a patented encoding format for digital audio which uses a form of lossy data compression. It is a common audio format for consumer audio storage, as well as a de facto standard of digital audio compression for the transfer and playback of music on most digital audio players.

It depends what software you are using to burn the CD. Most software will offer you a choice, before burning, of creating an Audio CD, MP3 CD or a Data CD. Make sure you have ticked the MP3 option before burning the CD. ITunes, for example, will offer this choice and then burn the selected Playlist to the CD.
