i plan to do the same thing when i get a new computer with cdrw, and my idea is organize and get into yhe habit of listening to your music in playlists that total up timewise into a nice length for burning each list onto cd one at a time... if this is possible, ( i cant try it yet...no burner!), then if you love the playlist, you'll love the cd. the difficulty i have is i messed up when making my current playlists, and there are duplicates on many, and want to redo them all. when i made them was when mj was new for me, and i made them by viewing recently imported, right clicking, choosing add to playlist, and trying to remeber what i had added as i went along. i need to know how to view all the mp3s in mjs library to redo all my playlists, and dont know how to do this... if you think this idea of burning from playlists would work for you, but dont know how to reorganize your files into playlists, and/or nurn each playlist onto cd, then keep an eye out on any replies to the message i am posting today "how can i view all the files in mj library at once?", and see what people come up with for that, and when you like your playlists and they are the right size for burning, if you have problems burning them one at a time, post a question of your own, and if no replies, or its not possible, maybe suggest this feature as answers to the messages here concerning version 9... if people support this facility, maybe j river will put it into the new version when it comes if its not possible with the current one. thanks for reading
