[paul4wolves]

Sounds like the bloke is a jeb LOL. why would you convert it AFTER you burn it :/
Just tell him to use itunes and read the instructions - you can't fail.

Most CD players can't play .wav or .mp3 files as far as I know. Tbh I don't even know what format CDs are in.

[james1234]

if he was to download the track into itunes it might change the format automatically like it does for wma files and then he could use it to burn onto the disc if you know what i mean

CD Players use '.cd' to play them. MOST CD players do.

What the hell?

From the same website,


When making your own CDs, it is important to know that normal CD players in your stereo, car, or home theater system can only read WAV (.wav / WAVE) format unless otherwise specified. Therefore, if you burn an MP3, mp3PRO, WMA, or Real Audio format CD, a regular CD player cannot read it. Only players specified as MP3, mp3PRO, Real Audio and WMA compatible can play those formats.

Just burn all the audio files with Windows Media Player.

Done.
