could be the read speed of the cd player...especially if its an external unit.  Also check your settings in media player, you might have to some extra error protection enabled that could be slowing it down.

Remove your CDROM and check ur system,if ur system still slow. Then may be ur system infected with a virus/spyware etc.\nOtherwise chage ur CDROM.

Have you tried running a Cleaning CD through your drive - it looks like an ordinary CD with a spiral of tiny brushes on it, some have music tracks to make it play for a few seconds, if it hasn't simply inserting it a couple of times will do the trick.

Probably an older player.  You might try using a different brand of CD-R.  That worked for me.  Best Buy has some sweet Verbatims that look like vinyl 45's.  Awesome!

Because they are compressed. Normally a cd-quality uncompressed sound file uses about 172 KB/s, or 10 MB/min. Through a smart algorithm, mp3 files use a lot less space (typically 960 KB/min) to store a simplification of the original sound, and you can hardly tell the difference, because of the way the human ear and brain receive the sound.

1) Get latest Windows Media Player\n2) Burn all audio files to a cd using WMP\n3) Go to Rip Music in WMP options and adjust audio quality (bit rate) accordingly\n4) Rip cd, files will be converted to bit rate

Ouch, get a DVD burner (Dual Layer).  Cd's only store less than 1gb.  That would leave you making 100 cd's for 70gb of data.

You should use the format that fits your needs better.\n\nIf you want to use the CD on different players, you should use audio CD format (WAV files) this will ensure you can use it with a wide range of players. The main drawback is that you can only fit about 70 minutes of audio on a regular CD.\n\nIf you have an MP3 player, you can use this format, but it wont play on regular CD players. The main advantage is that you can fit 700 minutes of audio encoded at 128 kbs.

You can better use a cd ripping software which can easily rip the cda files to mp3 or any format you like.\nThe best Cd ripping software I use is the Windows Media Player 10.\nIt has an In - built facility to ripp cds and also lets you choose the formats like .wma .mp3 .m3u .mp4 etc.\nYou can just download it from the Microsofts website as it is free to download. Or wait for few months as MS is going to release its new version of Windows Media Player and that is Version 11 with more of the advance features.

so many factors…\n\nBurning Mode: you have to burn it as a audio CD, not data. Disc burn as data or a mp3 disc will hold more songs but will NOT play on devices like car or home audio systems.\n\nDisc Type: some players can't read CD-RW, only CD-R discs. Simple enough.\n\nThe Deal Killer - DRM : You chose the audio CD as the burning mode to burn onto a CD-R. Now Content Protection (DRM) can be standing in your way of playing your music when and where you want to.\n\nConverting your .mp3 file to .wma will not only limit where, when and on what device you can play your music  but it can possibly degrade your music when you want to convert it back to a more open format.\n\nKeep your files .mp3 or .wav and burn audio cds.

u only need codecs that u r going to use\nif u have a good pc then having all codecs won't slow performance\nJust make sure to download ONE codec pack and setup it just once (if u wanna change it or update uninstall first)\nthis is to avoid codecs conflicts (that's what packs are good for...the whole package works well with each other) just uninstall if u wanna change (update/install new ones) ur windows codecs\n\nand if u r just wondering what codec is needed to play a specific file...check the tool below

It is irrelevant what you are burning. to a computer it is all digital garbage. just make sure you choose a speed that is compatible with the CD-R or DVD-R disc you are burning to.

Now a days we get 700 MB Blank CDs. U can burn the AVI file in it and it will work, as i have copied 750MB avi file in a 700MB CD it worked for me :-). Try using Nero Burn.

Windows Media Player has a setting called Play Speed settings. To find it, go to View->Enhancements->Play Speed Settings

Many reasons...\n\nStreaming audio (internet radio etc.). Streaming audio frequently gets interrupted. It cannot be avoided, even if you have the best hardware. You can get slightly better results by increasing your player’s streaming buffer.\n\nRAM. Next to graphics, music takes up a whole lot of RAM memory. 256 to 500MB are fine. \n\nAudio device/ soundcard. Every media player has a Preference section and a Device section. Make sure you select either the Primary device, or a device that corresponds with the name of your sound card.\n\nCD player in System Properties.  Go to Control Panel; System Properties; Device Manager. Look at the CD player properties. Make sure it's not 'disconnected'. Turn on 'auto insert notification' to play CDs automatically.\n\nDAE (digital audio extraction). Always go digital. Go to Control Panel; Performance; File System; CD player. Select 'digital'.\n\nBuffer. A CD player’s buffer stores music before letting you hear it. Check out the player's web site forum for info.\n\nNon-stop, gapless play. I can only listen to non-stop DJ-mixed CDs (without gaps) - if I set up by Winamp player's buffer and DAE correctly.
