my friend recently gave me his cd's and i wanted to add the songs onto my computer

i entered the disc in and went to windows media player and hit copy music from cd and it did 1 cd and when i went to play it the song waz playing really fast and rushing through, i think this is because my cd drive reads it fast or something so is there something i can do to change that or is there another way to copy over the songs

the only reason i want to copy this to my computer is becuase i dont want to burn the 36 cd's he gave me!!! (plus its handier)

Hey silverslik1 and welcome to Geeks To Go!
You will need to convert them from CDA format to MP3 format. Because if they are from a Audio CD (which i assume ther are from) they will be in a CDA format. Most mp3 players can do this mine can. (my mp3 player is musicmatch jukebox and it came with my PC so i dont know if it is freeware.

what program are you using/ Many times when converting a file to a different format it will play fast. For example, when i use Winamp to convert mp3 to wav, during the conversion the song is played fast. But when i am not converting the song plays fine in both formats.

try winamp-> http://www.winamp.com

Do you have a buner? Because Nero has a program that allows you to do that. I think Nero is free too.
