I assume you mean an audio CD? I routinely make audio CDs from mp3 files and have never had a problem. You can change an mp3 file into an aac file. However, there will be a corresponding loss of quality. It's sort of like making a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy. Every time you turn something into an mp3 or aac file you are compressing it. You may not notice a decline in quality, so go ahead and try it. See the link provided for choosing the desired conversion format. Just click on the file you want to convert and go to the Advanced men and choose "Convert to...(whatever you chose)". I STILL maintain you should not have to do this. An mp3 can be turned into an audio CD just fine. Make a playlist, make sure the correct disc format is chosen in the preferences and burn. Greg
