Help again...
Can anyone please help? I am going insane trying to burn a damn audio cd. Nero sucks. Windows Media player sucks has me wanting to toss the damn thing across the room. Can anyone suggest some sort of freeware that would allow me to burn songs onto a disc that is user friendly that a 12 year old could use? I've had it. How fucking hard should it be to burn 11 songs to a damn cd? Yet I've been dealing with this for two days.

AARRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I used to have Roxio Easy CD Creator and it worked. I also had a tiny little thing called CD Copy that I loved. It was so easy and it always worked. Yet I have XP now and it's not compatible.

I just want shit to work.

How hard is that?

I need a link to download something that will work with XP that either Is free or I can crack. I'm sick of this.

Thanks in advance and please pardon my rant. Music is my life and making cd's *should* be easy.

That would be nice, but this is something I *have* to be able to do. I have nearly 4,000 store bought cd's and I *need* to be able to burn stuff myself. I just need something that works that is easy to use. This has been going on since I upgraded to XP and I'm losing my fucking mind.

*hugs*

If only I could get the damn thing to cooperate! I even tried upgrading and it didn't like the upgrade. Gah!

where exactly is the problem? getting mp3s from your computer to burn on a cd to be put in a normal player? because nero shouldn't have a problem with that...
I've asked the boyfriend and he said he tried to remember what he had used besides Nero. Will report back once he does remember.

I think Wav figured it out. Damn thing only wanted to burn a freaking image not actually burn the cd. *sigh*

Why is it never easy??

I used to use windows media player, but have been using iTunes lately and like it ever so much better. My computer came with it when I bought it, but I believe it's a free download and it's easy to use. Good luck. There's nothing quite so frustrating as a computer program that doesn't work.

Someone else suggested iTunes so I'll look into it.

What exactly is the problem? I've always used Nero and i haven't had any problems burning CD except when the program was having CD's
compatibility issues.

Say Yes to the Dress
Apart by Viggo Mortensen
you found my keys
on an angel's hip
moved half the fallen trees
from the frozen road.

this trip is
all i thought
it would be
and we're not
even 1/2 way yet.

if i can't touch you
with snow-hung firs
our only witnesses
can't have your eyes
when everyone's asleep
then the fire's almost out.

you ask the un-named
attractions to leave town
but keep checking
it i'm still around.

should we sidestep
putting fingers to
words tracing lips that
would inform us?

once said i'd missed
you every instant
before we'd met.
now believe we knew
how sad we'd be
apart.
