Hi Vinnie - It may be easier to burn your music folders to the DVD-R just like you would a bunch of spreadsheets. I believe MediaMonkey sent the music as audio files not just plain old data. Not positive because I don't have MM in front of me at the moment.

Hi,Chris.I was able to burn on the dvd-r as a data file by using nero.I was able to put six ripped cd's on the one dvd-r which is great.All the cd's were ripped with EAC,will i lose any thing using nero to burn .I tested after the burn and they sound great.Thanks Chris.
