About creating a music CD

When recording music files, it is important to
note that:
■
In order to play your music CD in a home
or car stereo, it needs to be recorded as a
music CD in CD Audio (CDA) format, not
as a data CD.
■
You must record all music files in one
recording session because RecordNow closes
the CD after recording is complete. Music files
can be recorded repeatedly on a rewriteable
(CD-RW) disc, but all previously recorded
music files must be erased first.
