Jeff,
My original CDs transfer fine but I don't have originals for many of my
MP3.
Note that I am using SonicStage 4.3 which states that it cannot use Simple
Burner 8:( I don't care about the song titles but do care that I cannot
make even one copy of my MP3. The MZ-N710 cannot store MP3 directly. I
have tried to use an MP3 repair tool (header cleaner) in case that is the
problem but it still does not work.
Do you think if I converted each MP3 to wave then burnt to cd that would
im****t and transfer?
