Burning music onto DVD-R Disks

[twix_182]

Can you do this, because i want to transfer a lot of music t oa computer at school i was wondering if putting it on a dvd disk would work

 

[kyle_w]

burn it as a data CD. you can fit like 170 songs on one disc

 

[twix_182]

k thanks

 

[Frostfired]

if u burn it as data onto a dvd you coudl get over 1000

 

[Anathema]

yeah i gotta figure out how to burn -R dvds aswell

 

[sconnyFC]

yeah, but will they play if you burn them in that format? cuz it would be great to be able to burn a hella-long CD for driving croos-country so that i don't have to change my cd's while drivin'. (my disc changer is in my trunk)

No, it's a data CD. It won't play in a CD player. Only a computer can read it.

for just transfering files use a dvd because it has way more space.

actually some car stereos can play mp3 CDs, but you would know if yours did.

Derek I think you are wrong about that, I just bought a brand new Alpine CDA-9855 and it has an option to listen to MP3/WMA/CD format cd's or DVD-R.

dude i can fit like 200 onto a CD.

i can fit easily 1200 songs a DVD.

yeah its definently worth it to get a deck for your car that plays data cds. mine does. pioneer. its great stuff. 142 songs

i fit around 1000-1500 songs on it yesterday. worked perfectly. 4 gigs of music

 

[d-loc]

haha so why did u ask if you could do it man if you just did it?

 

[twix_182]

because yesterday i asked the question to see if it would work, then after i got my answer (from first replier)i did it

 

[kyle_w]

thats what im saying. i was talking about putting them on a regular CD instead of DVD-R. the most ive gotten onto 1 cd is 170

 

[freestyleskiin]

an MP3 cd hold the most i have seen
