From a friend (September 2005)

The latest version of Windows Media Player, version 10, makes it much easier to burn a CD than previous versions. At the top of the playlist panel at the right of the window is a button marked Now Playing List. Click on it and select Burn List from the menu. Then just drag and drop files from your library, other playlists or from Windows to the Burn List. When you are done, click on the Burn tab at the top of the window and click on the Start Burn button. You will, of course, need to insert a recordable CD. You can also drag other types of file to the Burn List and I recommend doing this with valuable documents now and then to make sure you have a backup in case of accidents or hard disk errors.
