I'm new at this music download thing from the internet. I've been using Limewire and have a few tunes downloaded. I notice that all of it is in MP3 format. Is it possible to burn them onto a CD that can be played in an ordinary car CD player or home player?

Yes. In fact I'd download all the songs to a file, save it on desktop, then download to a CD. Very very easy!

You will need a program that does the conversion for you. There are about 1 kagillion on the market. I know Nero i sa good one, as well as musicmatch. What ever player you use to listen to your mp3s on your computer may have one, otherwise you could dl a cracked version of one off of limewire, or buy one online or your local electronics store.

Just use Apple's iTunes - it's completely free. It's available for both Mac and Windows, and it _EASILY_ allows for burning MP3 files to regular audio CDs for the car (just create a playlist and click burn).

iTunes is very good, agreed.

Also, most CD-R drives these days come with software to do what you need. For example, Plextore drives come bumdled with Roxio Easy CD Creater Basic.

Also, depending on how recent the players are that you want to play the CD on you may be able to just burn them to CD as MP3's. Many newer cd and dvd players will play mp3's.

Thanks guys, I wish it were as easy as changing out the rear final drive gear.
Tweder, thanks for the link. And I'll also try to find this "nero" thing on the net.

Not a chance.

However, I just picked up an MP3 player 4X50 watts for the CRV from Future Shop for $179.00
