Itunes will do this; has always done it...remember the "Rip, Mix, Burn" Ads?

Just create a playlist in iTunes, then right-click on it and select "Burn 
playlist to disc" You CAN specify MP3 disks, but by default iTunes burns a 
standard 60-minute audio CD, which is still the standard.

Now be aware, some very old CD players ALSO have problems reading the writeable 
CD's, regardless of format. 

Definitely try a CD-R, not a CD-RW first.
