questions about MP3's

    I have about 10 Comedy clips that i got and i want to put them all on 1 CD

    and the cd is 800MB's . Now each Comedy clip is about 50MB long But when i try to add them to the CD using NERO it will only let me put 1 on, Even tho they are only 50MB long the time on each one is about 60 Minutes. and i know each CDR will only hold from 74-80 min of Audio.

    But is there a way to put all the MP3's in MP3 format on 1 CD? and be able to play it on an MP3 player?

    If so how do i do it in NERO? do i burn the MP3s as data and not as audio ?

    it will only play on a pc unless the CD player you want to use it in can play mp3 format.

    doesent nero have an MP3 cd creator? Make an mp3 disc? Thought that was based on the size of the data , but the audio is based on 80mins

    Just curious but what's the difference between a nero "mp3" cd and a data disk with mp3's on it? I've never had an mp3 playing cd and always assumed they'd simply read data disks full of mp3's burnt straight onto them.

    Yea id like to know this myself, but its an option in nero along with data disk......

    I think a Nero MP3 cd just checks the mp3's before hand to make sure they are mp3's. Theres nothing special written to the disc as far as i know.

    When you burn an "audio" CD from mp3s in Nero, it converts all the files to a .wav file so that normal CD players will be able to read it.
    When you burn a "data" CD, Nero just copies the mp3s directly to the disk. You'll need a computer or a mp3-readable CD player to read this type.
