I bet the original CD is a MP3 CD and you are making an AudioCD.

If you want another MP3 CD, why not make one? That is, create a DATA CD and not an AudioCD.

While I'd use CDBURNERXP.

I don't know what you use for data CD creation. Try CDBURNERXP. This is not an offer to write a tutorial. Just to point out what could be amiss and what I use.
