Thanks for all the help with all my posts today. I finally got an mp3 on an audio cd.
My new question is: do you have to burn all the songs you want to put on the cd at once (this is a cd-r I'm talking about)?
I thought you could burn them one at a time till the disk was full (at different times), but when I tried to go back and burn a new song after burning only one short one, it said "disk is not writable."

I believe this has to do with the choice of "Write Disc" or "Write Session". I'm still kinda new to this burning thing, and have only re-wrote to cd-rw's.
If you choose "Write Disc" in Toast, thats it for that disc. "Write Session" allows you to continue burn until you disc is full.

That's always the way I've understood it, I'm sure some one more knowlegable will chime in if I screwed up.

If you're planning on using that CD in a non-computer playback device (like a a car CD player or a CD Walkman) you must use a CD-R; most non-computer CD readers will choke on a CD-RW, this according to the Iomega web site FAQ's. http://www.iomega.com

Related, but not quite the answer you were looking for, alas.
