i am trying to burn all of my mp3's (1300) on to cd-rw so i still have my collection if i ever crash.i'm not sure how to do it.i'm using nero5.5.do i burn it as an iso or what.will i be able to fit heaps on one cd-rw.i'm a bit of a computer dummy so if someone can help me out it would be great.:confused:

To keep the MP3s as data (ie not converted to audio) then choose ISO 9660 as the disc type.
The capactity of the disc is limited by file size not time length, so a 74min CDRW will hold 650 meg of MP3s.

i use easy cd creator premium, but just select data then just drag drop as you would as an audio cd.

same goes for nero.

colin. :clown:

Roxio 5 allows you to burn MP3's directly to the CD. I have made backups of my MP3 Library before I wiped the hard drive and was able to average about 140 mp3's per CD-r. They can also be played on ANY computer or MP3 (CD DISK) player. Hope this helps...

He has Nero, he wanted to know how to burn MP3 CDs with Nero, not all the other burnware he does't have that can burn them. All burnware will do this unless it is specifically Audio CD burnware like Feurio.

Just use nero wizard and select data cd.:)
