A:Answer I usually record about 100 songs on my cds. Plays about 5+hrs. I don't have a CD player in my house (other than my computers) that will play cds recorded in this manner, but they play fine in my newer model vehicles. It is nice not to have to change the CD after only 80 minutes. I'm using CyberLink Power2Go for burning, select either MP3 CD or WMA CD. My cds aren't full either, they would probably hold another 30 or so songs.
