MP3 Burner FAQWhat It Is The process of writing data to a CD is often called "burning". An MP3 burner is a software program that converts (burns) MP3 to CD. The resulting files on CD will either be in WAV or MP3 format, depending on the capabilities of the software. WAV files on CD are playable in any CD player whereas MP3 files on CD are audible only on special MP3 compatible players. Your computer CD ROM will be able to play MP3 CDs in conjunction with Windows Media Player, Real Player, or other supporting software.
What is the Best MP3 Burner? For converting MP3 to WAV CDs, I like MP3 CD Burner. The program has an easy to use interface that lets you add and burn files easily. It incorporates Burn-Proof technology in conjunction with your CD burner hardware to eliminate buffer-underrun errors, a common technological problem with CD creation that thwarts the burning process. The program is very cost effective and is backed up by Acoustica's excellent support, quality guarantee, and all registered users get free upgrades of the program for life. For making MP3 CDs, I like Audio CD Maker from Avantrix. This program has undergone many improvements and it easily burns quality MP3 format CDs, offers the same Burn-Proof technology as MP3 CD Burner, and is also very inexpensive. For making both MP3 and WAV CDs, I suggest Nero Burning Rom. Nero has a ton of features, incorporates Burn-Proof technology, has an easy to use burning wizard for quick CD creation, and is fast. I used to use Easy CD Creator for all my burning but switched to Nero when I got the software with my new burning hardware. Nero is much faster and easier to use than the old Easy CD Creator version 4 I had previously. Although Nero is a more expensive program, it comes free with some CD burners. Are There Any Free MP3 Burners? This feature is the hardest to find free in the MP3 software world due to it demanding more support and development. Music Match Jukebox has a burning feature in its free version but it only burns at 1X which is very slow (the same amount of time it would take all the tracks to play - 4 min. play time = 4 min. burn time). Paying for the Plus version of the program gives users faster burning.
