I use CD-R 80min/700mb disks. I understand that you can only burn 80min audio or 700mb data.

When using Microsoft Media 9.0 (*.wma files), 80 minutes of music equates approximately to about 150mb.
If this is the case is there any reason why disks can't take more audio files greater than 80 minutes.

Is much of the disk unused? Do disks exist that take substantially more that 80 minutes of audio???

The audio number is specifically CD audio. WMA files are considered data, not audio, so you can put the normal 700MB of files on your CD.
