Explorer to drag and drop files to a CD-R or
CD-RW only after you start
Roxio Creator
and open a Creator project.
Do not burn a blank CD-R or CD-RW to its maximum capacity; for
example, do not copy a 650-MB file to a blank 650-MB CD. The CD-RW
drive needs 1–2 MB of the blank space to finalize the recording.
Use CD-Rs to burn music CDs that you want to play in regular stereos.
CD-RWs do not play in most home or car stereos.
Music MP3 files can be played only on MP3 players or on computers that
have MP3 software installed.
Use a blank CD-RW to practice CD recording until you are familiar with
CD recording techniques. If you make a mistake, you can erase the data on
the CD-RW and try again. You can also use blank CD-RWs to test music
file projects before you record the project permanently to a blank CD-R.
You cannot create audio DVDs with
Roxio Creator

Commercially available DVD players used in home theater systems may
