Ok CD-Rs have a maximum space of 80 Minutes or some odd Mg. Now I've seen a Cd with literally over 100 songs on it. Is it possible to burn Cds using the Mg end of programs instead of minutes. does anyone know how to do this?
MP3 cd players go by the mb not the length. So if you have a 80 minute cd which holds 700 mb and your average track is about 5mb, then you could fit about 140 songs on that 1 cd. I love my portable mp3 cd player.

Ok you didnt answer my question. I didnt ask what do I need to buy to do that, I asked if its possible with the Cd burner on the computer. all you had to say was no.
I didn't tell you to buy anything. If you just burn mp3s to in an audio cd format it will go by the length. If you burn a data cd full of mp3s it will go by the mb.

Yes I already know that but theres one catch. What settings do I NEEd to have for Data Cds cause I've made Data Cds in the past with files/folders and MP3s but the Mp3s WONT play in my Cd player. So if I was to make an all MP3 Data Cd it wouldnt work in my Cd players, UNLESS the reason why It didnt work last time was because it was files/folders and MP3s. Does it JUST NEED to be MP3s by itself to work?:confused:
Does your cd player even support mp3? A lot of them don't.

No it doesnt. The only burner I have in on my comp. So is that possible. If I burn a Data CD with JUST MP3s instead of MP3s and files/folders will it work and be playable?
It will only work if your cd player supports mp3. Since you say yours doesn't then it won't work.
