wav or mp3

Further to my earlire question, i must be making a mistake somewhere. I want several albums on 1 disc. I'm using Nero, my music files are mp3, when i drag and drop files into Nero , it goes up in minutes. As average length is 3 Mb i would expect 200 + tracks on a 700 mb disc, however, Nero goes up in minutes not size so after about 20 tracks, disc is full as average length is 3 minutes and 3 mb, sorry if this is not clear, but i am at a loss as how to get many more tracks on cd, anybody help please?

If you use Nero to create a music CD then all compressed files will be decompressed to .CDA files so they can be played in most (if not all) CD players. To maintain the files as .mp3s simple create a data disk. These music files will not be accessible through most CD players.

Yeah Buttons has hit the nail on the head....you have your Nero set to make a music disc....If your running the wizard to make the disc make sure you select a data disc as you are recording data not music onto the disc.

If you do want to play the resulting discs on an ordinary CD player then you are stuck to only about 74 minutes I'm afraid.
