Help with making a CD

[MattB]

Ok, I have a bunch of MP3's on my harddrive and I want to make a CD with them to be played on an MP3 compatible player ( right now only my DVD player will do that ).

Anyway, when I try to use NERO, it seems to auto convert them over to WAV files and that greatly increases their size on the CD, so I can only get like 15 or so songs on one damn CD. CAn I just copy the files directly over to a CD and have it work???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

All my MP3's are 320bit 44.1Khz files.
