[X4U] burning audio CD

[Chris Beamis]

One day I spotted a CD of a different brand laying on my desk, that 
said it could hold 80min/700MB, and was able to write to it just fine.
I guess the moral to this story is that I can't rely on what the CD 
label says vs. how big Itunes says the playlist is!

Thanks for the advice and hints.
Chris
