Say, I got a CD from my mom the other day with 40 Neil Diamond songs on
it. A buddie and I are wondering how they can get 40 tunes on a CD and
we can only get around 20-
I surely dont have an MP3 player in the living room or the car, so
what's the format, and the technology?
Quite interested....

Assuming you're right and your CD players don't support MP3, the answer is
probably "short songs".

Check the total play time of that CD. The limit for a standard audio CD is
74 minutes, but that can easily be pushed to 80 minutes.

Also, put the CD in your Mac and do a "Get Info" on it. It'll tell you
whether it's an Audio CD, Data CD, or something else.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Most folks would (and should) walk away from this admission.
The CD in question was a Two Set CD!!! LAUGHS.!!!.
Well at least I admit to it.

<sigh> At least you admitted it, yeah.

The specs say you can have up to 99 tracks on a CD.
