okay. MP3 is a compressed format like Zip, but slightly different. If it came as a zip file - unzip the MP3 from it. Then when you play the mp3 in winamp or realplayer etc. it tells you how long your it is - this is the only thing that really matters (along with bitrate=quality). Basically your burning software (I use Nero) will convert MP3 to CD audio automatically so long as the mp3 is not longer than the length of your CD - 74 or 80 mins. If you need cut up an MP3 I recommend you use Soundforge.
