I'm new at this so please forgive me. I've burned about 25 MP3 files to a
CD before. What I want to do is add some narrative between the MP3 files -
and I want to arrange the MP3 files in a certain order. Can I record my
voice in MP3? Is that the correct way to do this? (and number the files
consecutively)
