You can use cue files for importing track seek points and metadata to MC's library. MC can understand only cue sheets that contain a single reference to an audio file.

Here's info about the structure of cue files:

Went to your link - thanks!

I'll have to chew on it awhile until it gets through my head though. Here's what I'm interested in knowing:

I downloaded an mp3 file that is about an hour long. I also downloaded a corresponding a cue file, but I don't know how to use it when I burn a CD. I assume that using a cue file will let me switch tracks when I play the CD, just as if that CD had separate tracks - is that right?

And, do I just include the cue file with the mp3 when I burn the CD? Does order matter?

Sorry for all the questions.
