    I would like to know if there are any freeware cd compression programs. I have alot of songs I would like to put on one cd, but of course they won't fit because of the size. I have used shrink and nero for dvd compression but have never got into cd burning until now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    convert the cd's to mp3 then the cdr will hold more. your cd player must be mp3 compatible for this to work.

    i have got a stupid idea....u might want to try getting into the mp3 genereation....unless you already have one and u just want a cd. But like the guy said before me, just change the format to an mp3, that is about as compressed as the songs are gonna get.

    Thanks for the info. The probably I was having with my mp3 discs was that I was trying to play them in an incompatible player. Now I know the discs are fine and I need to upgrade my playere. Thanks again for the reply to a stupid question.
