Apperently the program can make audio cds from mp3s without converting
them to *wavs, mp3s are a compressed format, which an audio cd is not.
Does it create .wavs , places them on the cd, then deletes them from
your hd?
if you could create a audio cd from mp3s the advantage would be saving
harddisk space.

k3b seems to be only gui applications that can (or i am missing what it
actually does)make audio cd out of mp3s without converting to .wavs.

AFAIK, and I have done it, CD players can play mp3 straight off CD.

97.025% of statistics are wrong

it depends how old or new the cd player is whether it can play mp3 cds.

k3b must utilise harddisk space when making a audio cd from mp3s, so it
can uncompress them for the audio cd.
