You can create your own audio CDs by copying music from your computer onto a blank disc. CDs that you create in this way should play in any device that can play standard (manufactured) audio CDs. All that is required is a CD burner (also called a CD writer). Most computers have one of these.

To begin creating an audio CD, start Brasero (Applications → Sound & Video → Brasero Disc Burner) and select Audio project from the main screen. Then, select the songs that you want to add to the CD and add them to the project. Finally, click Burn to copy the songs to a CD.

You will also need to select the maximum duration of the CD which you inserted (e.g. 80 minutes), which can be done by clicking on the small CD icon near the bottom of the window. Brasero will warn you if you have selected more files than can fit on the disc.

See the Brasero manual for full instructions.
