Playing a CD
Use the music program or Windows Media Player on your computer to:
Play music CDs
Create MP3 music files from your music CDs
Edit music track information
Use your music files to build a music library
Playing a DVD
A Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) is similar to a standard CD but has greater data capacity.
Because of this increased capacity, full-length movies, several albums of music, or several
gigabytes of data can fit on a single disc. You can play DVDs with the DVD program or
Windows Media Player.
Creating CDs and DVDs
You can use the CD and DVD burning program on your computer to copy tracks from a
music CD to your hard drive, copy or create data CDs and DVDs, create music CDs, create
video DVDs, and more.
Important When you place a single-sided disc in the tray, make sure that the label side
is facing up. If the disc has two playable sides, place the disc so the name of
the side you want to play is facing up.
