Hi, am going to start using Nero and had a question. With that program can you save tracts of music on your computer as MP3 or whatever to then send on to others. I mean tracts from CD that then can be sent? I realize that a lot of you are proficient at this but am new at it so appreciate any help and suggestions for settings etc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Olesen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
