Default Burning tracks to CD *Damsel in Distress*

I use Wanadoo music website to download tracks to our computer, and I have sucsessfully burnt a few Cd's in the past. Last week, when I tried to burn some new tracks to Cd, following the same procedure I always have, they wouldn't play on regular Cd players only on the computer.

What have I done wrong? As far as I am aware I did not do any different. I chose the option for audio cd and all the songs have licenses.

Help!

Did you close the session on the disc ? Some CD players won't play discs with session left open.

are you burning onto CD-RW or CD-R ? Some older cd players do not like CD-RW

Sorry, I should have expanded a bit

Is the CD that you're trying to burn the tracks to the same brand/type as the one's you've (successfully) used before? Occasionally CD players are picky about the types of discs they read and knowing whether or not this is the case may help to determine whether the fault was disc related, burn related or otherwise

Have you downloaded mp3 files and just copied them onto the CD?

If so, you need to cut a MUSIC CD from the mp3's not just burn the files to media

(sorry if this isn't the case, but I thought it best to cover all options!)

Make of Cd is same as before, and played on the same Cd players.

File types are the same as previously used from Wanadoo Download site.

I've done nothing different as far as I can tell, its this machine with its mind of its own! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAArgh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!
