There is no need to convert the files. cdrecord can write .wav files directly to CD-R (I've done this once or twice). From the cdrecord man page: If a filename ends in .au or .waw the file is conĀ sidered to be a structured audio data file. Cdrecord assumes that the file in this case is a Sun audio file or a Microsoft .WAV file and extracts the audio data from the files by skipping over the non-audio header information. In all other cases, cdrecord will only work correctly if the audio data stream does not have any header. Because many structured audio files do not have an integral number of blocks (1/75th second) in length, it is often necessary to specify the -pad option as well. cdrecord recognizes that audio data in a .WAV file is stored in Intel (little- endian) byte order, and will automatically byte- swap the data if the CD recorder requires big- endian data. Cdrecord will reject any audio file that does not match the Red Book requirements of 16-bit stereo samples in PCM coding at 44100 samĀ ples/second. -Jon Burchmore
