how to burn flac files to cd

by Lnarth Mar 18, 2010 1:55AM PDT

My system is WinXP on a Dell Dimension E 510. Is there a decent freeware burner to put some flac files on a cd? I've tried converting them to mp3 files (which I can use to burn with) but am not content with the 128 kilobyte files, which to my ear just don't measure up to the sound of flac files. The flacs were made with Exact Audio Copy, a program I do not have.

Re: flac to wav

If you want an audio cd, you must convert them to wav-format, then use the burn-wav-to-audio-cd option of your burning program. Find the program you like from
http://www.google.com/search?q=convert+flac+to+wav

If you prefer another format can be read in your target player, use a variant of the search above to find a program to convert to that format. Then burn a data cd.
