Whats a cheap and easy way to convert WMA and MP3 format audio files from my computer to CD so that I can listen to them in my car?
Ive seen some which are around $20 I have no trouble paying for one but if im going to pay I want somethign that will definitely work.
So whats good at a good price?
Are there any free?
Also what are CD files called? Do they have an acronym?

You can follow my link & get yourself a free CD burning software. It should automatically convert the files to a proper format before it burns them to CD as long as you opt to burn an "Audio CD" & not a "Data CD"

Can't you just use WMP 11 or something?

I think many people don't know they already have software that can do that. WMP, Real Player, WinAmp, Nero, etc.
If I always hear voices surrounding me, does it mean Im crazy or that I hear in Dolby 5.1?

Yes, I just found out that I was just doing it wrong and making a data rather than an audio CD.
Thanks for the help guys.
Sorry for asking such a basic question on this forum which seems quite advanced. I am very uneducated when it comes to this kind of thing.
Thanks again

Well, I wasn't born a genius. I just became one by the time I was 5 years old. LOL. Now seriously, don't be afraid to ask.

for shits and giggles lets say....i just ripped a cd that i bought from a store, now that its on my HD, i try to burn it to cdr using Nero & chosing "make an audio cd" i get a mesage saying "CANNOT ADD FILE 'C:\NEW MUSIC FILE\GEORGE MICHAEL' FILE NAME IS IN CORRECT OR FILE WAS NOT FOUND". so i re-ripped it and get some message. it has to do with that damb DMR crap. so how can i get it to mp3 and play it on other audio players and not just my computer?
PS: i used widows media player to put it on my HD.

@jacka$$, If by chance you have AnyDVD decrypter for doing dvd's, try running it behind the audio CD while ripping it to the HD. If you don't have it, there is a trial download to see how it works. It will remove most encryptions from audio also.

You can use Nero/ Real Player or WMP to convert yur audio files into CDA format. Some programs only use MP3 and not WMA though...

As we all know, the stereo device on car can only support Audio CD. You need to burn your WMA and MP3 format audio files to your Audio CD.
I recommend you Imtoo audio maker, which is an all-in-one audio tools. I like it. It integrates audio converter, audio CD ripper and audio CD burner.
You can download from his website http://www.imtoo.com/downloads/audio-maker.exe .You can use its free trial version, which is restricted on time, but not on function.
I hope it will be helpful for you. Enjoy your favorite music on your car!

realg187: if you start judging people by rank or try to act like you've got real experience around here this early, then you're going to find yourself in trouble.
jacka$$: are you sure your extensions are correct? what format did you rip in? if WMP ripped it, it should be able to burn it, unless you changed the settings to prevent burning the disc (i remember seeing a setting somewhere to "copy-protect" music or some BS like that).

Yeah on Wmp i think there are a few settings you should "untick"; like ripping in wma and rip to mp3, and like aus said the copy protect b/s.
Edit: Typo.

It's good judgement about him, but I guess that was kind of mean, being a newbie is hard enough, just being called it pisses me off...

In what way...? You know, rank isn't the only thing that matters at Ad.

realg187: you may have been trying to compliment him, but by your own realization of rank, you're placing yourself far above him, as though you hold far higher levels of maturity and knowledge. i'm not trying to get on you; all i'm saying is your statements allude to you growing a big head on yourself in the future, and i'm trying to advise to watch that, lest you get humbled by the long arm of a mod.
and, btw, the rules stipulate that you can't have more than 5 lines of text in your sig. you said on another thread that you're going to add your compie specs to that sig, and i just don't want you catching heat over a misread of the rules or whatever.

it's not up to us to question the rules. but now your sig breaks them. you really should straighten that out.
*edit*
okay, you changed it. nevermind. ^.^
though it's still one line too many and i think mods may want you to remove those links.

Well even so, just becos he is a Newbie or Junior etc doesn't mean he isn't knowledgeable in his subject(s). He may have joined the forum with the intent to help out rather than to ask things of people...
Maybe you should do a little work on your judgement skills before you go around willy nilly flicking people off at the sight of their rank.
