hello everyone,
please bear with me on this one, i'm new to the MAC OSx platform... i ran into a problem when i was trying to burn an audio cd thru itunes. whenever i choose more than 10 songs , itunes would tell me that it wouldn't fit into one cd. it looks like itunes measures the file size when compiling mp3s to be burned into an audio cd instead of measuring the minutes. is there a way to change the iTunes settings so that i can fit more songs into a cd? or is there another program for Mac that can do this? thank you in advance.

This doesn't really belong in this forum, but how many minutes total are you trying to burn?

i apologize, i wasn't getting any replies from the MAC OSx section.
i'm not sure how many minutes they are but i've already burnt them on a cd, all 17 songs on my old PC using Nero Express. i'm looking for that same function from Nero on which when you're compiling mp3/wma's to burn, the program measures the running time of the songs instead of the file size.. that way, i can fit more songs into a cd no matter the size. is there such a program for MAC?
thanks.

Please check to see how many total minutes you are trying to burn. It would make trouble-shooting your problem easier.
Probably a stupid question, but are you sure that you are using the same capacity CDs? Like, you're not using 74-minute CDs now and you used an 80-minute CD to burn it on your Windows machine?

Well, I think that is what iTunes does. I've never had a problem burning many things to a CD.
I'm not sure if I understand what you mean by iTunes measuring the file size. What format are the songs you're trying to burn? Just normal MP3? You're sure you have "audio CD" select in the preferences?
