There is an option there to burn "MP3 CD", but it won't do it unless its already in MP3, so you have to convert them, which doubles up on each song in your play list, then you have to sort the MP3 ones from the other ones, and burn those ones instead.

So now I've got 392 copies of those songs on my PC.
And they say us Gen-Y'ers have it good

Making digital encoded music the only readily available medium is crime against humanity AFAIC. You know, just like Apple is.

I have Vinyl & Compact Disc. If I want it in another format, I rip it. I'm proud of my hard copy collection of music.

Theres many a free program (yes I said PROGRAM, not friggin' "app") that will allow you to convert them into a more accessible format.
