Greetings G-Group
I know that this might be the incorrect place to post this question
but I'm hopping that someone can point me to the correct location.
I have some music that is in MP3 and MP4 format however my family
room
CD/DVD player is a Toshiba SD-6109C.
Yeah it's at least 25 years old and it doesn't recognize CD's that
are
encoded MP3 or MP4 so I'd like to convert the songs to what ever
format that was used a long time ago. Or even the format that is
currently in use for the Music industry. As the Toshiba will play
CD's
that we purchase today, so my question is:
"What format does the music industry use and what application can I
use to convert the songs that I have."
Of course I'd like to find an application the is free.
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.
Never leave home with MP3 CDs in tow just to find out the the car
hotel room you're in can't play them. Super Bummer. I carry a 16 GB
stick with an iTunes library on it to make CDs on the fly if needed.:-)
