Is there a way to load up a big MP3 CD without using Toast?
I thought I'd read that it is possible by simply dragging files from the Finder to the CD on the desktop.

I've got an Aphex DVD player that is supposed to be able to play those nine or ten hour long MP3 CDs.

Please advise.
Thanks.

As far as I know, MP3 CDs are formatted in a special format; you can't just play a Mac/PC formatted CD in a CD player. Sorry, but I think Toast is the only way to go to do this.

I think Apex players can read MP3s burned onto ISSO9660 formatted discs. On a side note, I think Dis Burner can burn MP3 format discs too.

there is no special format just, iso9660 or something like that the toast mp3 cd format is iso966... just it adds ".mp3" to the end of all the files.

hope that helps =)

1. Shove a CDR disc into your Mac's CD-R burner
2. Format for ISO9660, not Mac.
3. Drag the mp3 files (correctly named, of course. iTunes does it properly) onto the disc icon
4. Eject the disc. Disc Burner will now burn the MP3s to disc. And take its own sweet time doing it, too.

It would be good if we could do this from iTunes directly, so we had the option to burn a CD full of MP3s OR a CD full of MP3s converted to regular CD format. But we can't.

It would also be good if DVD players could play MP3s AND put out funky visuals like iTunes can. But they don't.
