media, rated as 48x writing. This means that those of you with a reasonably new CD-writer can make use of it's fast write speed, myself included. It doesn't mean though, that those with an older writer, can't use them - you can of course, but at a slower speed than me (down to 1x speed). 700Mb is a lot of space. I can store around 300 5 megapixel digital files, or maybe 175 MP3's - and using my writer can do this in around 4 minutes.

Three things.
1. A computer.
2. A rewritable drive, not just your bog standard CD-ROM drive.
3. Burning software. This is usually available free from the net at places like download.com and enables you to put your MP3s in the right order ready for burning.
WHAT DOES THE 650 MEAN IN THE PRODUCT TITLE?
There are two types of CD-R size. A 650 and a 700. These numbers correspond to the number of megabytes of space available. As a general rule, for music burners, a 650 will hold 74 minutes of music whilst a 700 will hold 80 minutes of music. In this instance, it's the lesser of the options but what six minutes (or one ...
