HOW TO BURN A CD TO TAKE TO YOUR PIANO: Explanation about sound on the internet.
Sound on the internet has to be in small file sizes, so we use
Mp3 files, WMA files, or real audio.
Mp3 files can be burned to a CD, or downloaded to a MP3 player
and taken to your piano for practice.
WAVE files can be burned to a CD and used in any stero system,
but......the file sizes are in the thousands and too large to download
from the internet. It can be done, but would take a long time to
download and could freeze your computer.
So................here is the solution: 1. Web site puts up sound files on the internet using MP3 or WMA, (small
files)

3. Download a converter that takes these files and converts
them to a wave file so you can burn a CD. IT"S SO
