which software is the most accurate for copying mp3 files to cd? I am not making an audio cd, just an mp3 cd. This is so my mp3 cd player won't have problems reading.

Is there any particular directory structure that one should follow in order to create MP3 CDs to be played on hardware MP3 players? Can you include non-MP3 files (album covers) on the CD without bumping into problems playing the files on stand-alone MP3 players? Can you play LAME encoded files on these players without encountering bad sound quality?

It was never a problem for me to include a photograph (disc album cover) in the same folders as the .mp3s themselves.
For example, you can put 1 (or more) .jpgs, even hi-res cover-scans into each group of mp3s. I use a single picture called 'COVER.JPG'. It shows up on the on-screen menu of my Sony standalone, but of course you can't 'play' it back. At least in my own experience, it doesn't hurt a bit to archive pictures along with your music files.
And YES, Lame-encoded mp3 files sound even _better_ on my Sony player than thru WinAmp.

Oops! I see that you said, "Hardware MP3 Players". I thought you meant standalone DVD players. (Well), that's _sort of_ the same, right?

Klingy,
"nd YES, Lame-encoded mp3 files sound even _better_ on my Sony player than thru WinAmp."
Just to avoit confusion:
LAME-encoded mp3 files sound even better on your Sony player than through your SOUNDCARD. WinAmp hardly has a role to play here (unless you have goofed with the EQ)

(Absolutely correct, Lasse). The sound card is most definately a limiting factor here, as is WinAmp's default built-in equalizer.
I know there are better winamp equalizers out there (one kind cd-rw.org member sent me a link to one last year), but of course, that's still no substitute for straight dvd-player to hi-fi system reproduction.

Klingon,
I'd say that if you dump your soundcard and get Stero-Link 1200 (http://cd-rw.org/articles/archive/stereolink.cfm) , you will be _quite_ happy with the sound. I am pretty sure that it actually beats cheapo DVD players (I don't know what you own), and possibly lowend CD players as well.

That unit looks _quite_ impressive, (and I even have a spare USB port I'm not using), but my Sony DVP-NS315 standalone sounds excellent (cds *or* mp3s) and serves me very well.
I have been anxious to get away from the 'puter (.ogg) files for a long time, and much prefer the Sony unit to (even) an external sound card.
(No more mouse clicky-clicky). Feet up, remote-control in hand - much nicer) :-)
