I downloaded music from my personal cd collection onto my computer. I then tried to make a compilation cd and burn it. The burned cd works on my computer, but I can't listen to it on a regular cd player.

A friend mentioned perhaps I'd burned mp3s instead of audio files. So I tried again, choosing "burn audio files" instead of selecting mp3. Anyway, still doesn't work.

My choices for burning are Nero, RealPlayer or Sonic.

Do you know what I'm doing wrong? Or can you walk me through the process?

When you play it on your computer, does it come up as an audio CD?

Also, you may want to change yoru CD-R media since computers play cd's better than HI-FI players. Some types of blank cd's do not play on regular players.

Make sure you're using CD-R, not CD-RW...maybe you already knew that? I recently burned some MP3 files that I d/l using RealPlayer onto SKC CD-R 52X media...these files played fine on my portable CD player, which is pretty old(not one of those new-fangled CD/MP3 players).
