| 472559 | 2006-07-21 16:52:00 | So if I convert them into MP3 It won't make a difference to the number of Cd's i need? I thought that MP3 being smaller than WMA I could fit more songs onto a Cd? This thread has become somewhat confused. Your question was at first,_ "How can I convert them from WAV to MP3." WAV and WMA are two different things. WAVE being uncompressed, and WMA a different method of compression from MP3. :) |

So I am wanting a way to put as many on to a disc as possible to play on a CD Player. and I heard that you can fit more on if they were in MP3 Format. SO i want somethign that will convert them from WMA to MP3 so I can burn them. Thanks |

| 472561 | 2006-07-23 19:04:00 | Normal mp3's seem to be about a minute per mebabyte for 128 kbps quality.It's not super accurate but you will find for most mp3's it is fairly close. | howardepgco (9451) | ||
| 472562 | 2006-07-23 22:33:00 | Note that if you burn them to an audio CD the format you have them in on your computer makes no difference at all (compressing them there will only decrease music quality). If you burn music to a data CD then the compression will have an effect. Basically whatever format you use will have a treadeoff between quality and size. The more you compress it, the worse it will sound. If you need to store large amounts on your computer, use a lossy codec such as MP3, WMA, or Ogg Vorbis with a decent compression setting. If you need to burn high quality audio CDs, a lossless codec like FLAC might be better. |

| 472563 | 2006-07-23 23:43:00 | Does your CD player you intend to play the CD on support/play mp3's?. | lazydog (148) | ||
| 472564 | 2006-07-24 01:01:00 | And if it does support MP3, there is a chance it will support WMA also, so there may be no need to convert them. | roddy_boy (4115) | ||

Thanks i'm wondering if you are actually trying to make music cd ie convert WMA to wave and burn to cd so you can play it on an ordanary cd player. if so most cd burning software thesedays can handle all the conversion as well. |
