You want to make an audio CD, correct? There is no point in making MP3s
as those would just have to be decoded to wave when you make the audio
disc.

To make waves from your WMA files, load the files you want into Winamp
keeping in mind that audio CDs will hold 80 minutes of music. Assure
that Winamp isn't set to repeat, then...

Ctrl + P (Winamp preferences)
Output (under Plug-ins)
Nullsoft Disk Writer (or Wave writer)
Configure

Now play the files. You'll hear nothing and they will "play" rapidly.
You'll wind up with a wave file of each song...use Easy CD to burn
those. Don't forget to put Winamp back the way it was.
