Hi
Just need some help in making mp3 cds. which program is best to use? i've tried Easy CD Creator but i don't like the fact that i have no way to change the song order.

also, is there any recommendations for a WAV/ CDA to MP3 ripping program?
i've looked on downloads.com but the ones there don't appear to be that reliable

any help would be cool

I hate alphabetical!

When you put more than one album on an mp3 cd, you dont want alphabetical, because it screws the order of tracks on your cd.

So there's a few ways to keep tracks from multiple albums in order:

1. Name files like: Artist - Track Number - Song Name
or Track Number - Artist - Song Name
etc.
2. Use m3u playlists if your mp3cd player supports it.
3. Put your albums in separate folders and burn with Nero.

I use Nero and NTI CD/DVD maker 6 Pro.
Nero is a pain because it does make it all alphabetical and i hate that. I know what order i want to listen to my songs dammit! NTI is the better choice, for me atleast. I find its easier and i dont get any crap abt buffer under runs and i can run it in the background without it being a pain. It is unfortunately a bit of a resource hog.
But i <3 it. ^_^
