Off Topic,

A little help from those that are not tech challenged,

In the post-Christmas bargain shopping spirit, I'm planing on buying a CD burner. My only uses for this now is to move my many MP3 files off my hard disk for storage, and also to make CD's that can be played on the stereo systems scattered around my life.

The questions:

I understand that you can't play an MP3 file on a regular stereo, and need to convert them to .wav (?) files. Is this easy?

Is it worth the extra dollars to buy a re-writeable CD and the disks, or should I stick with the write only?

As with any tech purchase, it seems like you should always go with the max. functions, because you can't foresee what you might want to do with the thing in the future. Any expert advice will be greatly appreciated. TIA...

John
