CD MP3 CD????

[silly billy]

Could someone tell me the difference.I have been burning some tracks to blank cdrs using nero and i do 1 album per cd up to a maximum of 80mins.I get the option to create an mp3 cd and from what i understand i can get several albums on 1 mp3 cd is this correct? I have a music system that plays mp3 cds.
Also if i make one of these mps cds can i search for the album and play selected tracks from the album or will it just play the whole albums from start to finish??
If anyone can give some information I would be very grateful and can you explain in simple terms  ;D ;D. Thankyou.

Haven't a clue, but anyone who answers this might be able to answer me a question along similar lines.....

Anyone know how to convert MP4 to MP3 - I'm trying to take tracks out of i-tunes to burn a cd for playing in the car.

Firstly Billy - you can only get 1 album per mp3 CD. From what I know, mp3 is just the file format. I have burned CDs from Nero and have been able to select individual tracks on the CD (if that was your question). However, I find Nero infuriating at times and often revert back to using Windows Media Player.

Froglets - whenever I get a problem like that I just google "convert mp4 mp3" and then select anything that is freeware!

Yes you can fit several albums onto an MP3 cd with the same quality as a normal burn, we do it as a back up and can fit several hundred tracks on an 80 min CDR.  Normally you can't search for a specific track from a specific album however you can skip tracks as you would on a normal cd.  I hope this explains it

To convert MP4 to MP3 using Nero, select the CD then Audio option as you would if you were burning as normal.  Scroll across to Edit Audio then open the track that you want to change.  Then select File, Save as and change the file type accordingly

If you are using anything other than Nero then I don't know how you would do it.  There may also be an easier way but I don't know of one
