thumbupWhenever I go to my moms I always get a CD burner so I can make CDs. I like making my own more than the ones you buy at the store.I enjoy being able to put various songs in the order I want on the CD.

The only thing I dont like is that these CDs mess up and get scratched so much easier than a store bought disc.thumbdown

A record store here-F.Y.E.-also has a mix and burn station to create your own CDs.I visit in once in a while, but it is expensive.thumbdown

So which do you prefer? CDs you can create yourself or a whole band's CD?

I make my own cd's every chance I get. I have always been one to make my own CD's I agree with you as far as putting them in your own order and choosing what songs to put on. I also enjoy listening to the songs as I put together the CD. I hate how fast the CD's that I make are ruined. Your so right about the store bought ones lasting longer. I dont think we have a place to go and burn your own CD's like that but if we did I probably wouldnt go there as its much more fun to do it at home. I like to make CD's for special people in my life as well. I did one with a slide show of pics of me and my brothers growing up for my dad. I did it to music and he really enjoyed it. Thought it was the best gift ever. For me music has always been a way to relate to things. When I am sad there is a song for that and when I am happy there is a song for that too. Every emotion has a song I say. So not only do I love to burn my own cd's I use music to make me feel better. If I was to buy a bands whole CD it would have to be a great CD. Other wise Itunes is my best friend. w00t

I love my music, and have to have it! Whenever I find a coupon for the Mix N Burn I go to it so the CD costs less.
I want to get a desktop computer with a printer and a burner so I could make my own.Music can get old fast if you dont have a large selection to choose from!! LOL!!lol

I think that is a sweet idea to give to someone.It is something from the heart, and those are the best gifts!wub

I've been amazed before at how listening to a song I could feel my breath taen away as I would hear exactly what I was going through or feeling.Music has also helped me in my biggest times of need.happy

I want to get itunes or something like that.I dont know yet!

Well I enjoy both making my own cd's and band cd's, because it can be special to acquire a very good band cd. Especially if they have a nice cover, inlay and if the album is awesome overall I'd rather have the band cd. The problem is that I often like a few songs of an album and then I would rather burn my own cd's and mix up my favourite songs.


myLot reputation of 96/100. erikmama (4232)   ranked 366 out of 8,288 in listening to music  2 years ago

confusedThat's my problem also...I usually buy a whole CD for a song or two.However buying whole CDs has helped me to discover great music and songs I never would have.thumbup
I enjoy making CDs for different moods, so making them is great.Once I get my own burner I can do me.Hopefully soon!!happy


myLot reputation of 82/100. Peacemaker1988 (540)  2 years ago

Yeah that's true. There may be some hidden songs which are awesome. I have experienced this as well and it's a nice surprise. w00t I also mix up cd's for different moods and different genres so it's easy to pick the one you want to hear. thumbup

I rarely make my own cd's for music. I tend to buy music files online nowadays. I mostly make cd's for one of my old video game systems.

I like to put emulated games, and homebrew programs on them.

yes sometimes i make my own cd's.. it costs alot less money than having to buy the origional cd's that i want. i mostly get all of my music from torrent sites so i dont have to pay anything for the music or anything else that i download.. so its all free except for the blank disks which are only afew dollars..

Personally this is something that I have never really considered trying. I know there are times I would Love to do this, especially when there might be only one or two songs of someone you really enjoy, but could not see yourself wasting the money for the whole CD. But in reality since I tried to do something like this once before, I will leave it for someone more experienced.
