I think it's legal to copy them to your hard drive if you own the songs and burn them to a CD. They have to be in .wav format or they won't play in a regular CD player. These days the new players play mp3 files, so if you have one of those you don't need them in wave format.

You must first have a CD burner. Put a blank CD into the burner and let the computer recognize that it is blank. Then go to My Computer and open the CD drive. It will bring up a box with nothing in it. Drag and drop the music files you want to put on the CD here. When you're finished, on the left hand side of the box there should be something that says "burn these files to disk". Click on that and it should burn them to the CD. Then, when it's done, it will ask you if you want to close the disk and it will give you several options. You want to close the disk so that nothing else can be written on it and it can be opened by any computer. This will allow your CD player in your car to open the files and play them.

If you have a computer with a CD-R/W drive, you can burn your own CDs. All you need is a software package that will allow you to store the songs you like on your computer and then burn them on a CD-R. There are all kinds of software packages that do this. Two of the most popular are put out by Acoustica and MusicMatch -- Google them and you'll find their websites where you can download trial versions of their software. WARNING: You should use CD-R's, not CD-RW's, to make your own music CDs -- many CD players won't read CD-RW's. Also, if the CD player in your car is more than five years old it may not be able to read home-burned CDs. Finally, make sure that all the songs you burn to CD are in .cda format, not .mp3 or .wav or .wma format -- car CD players only recognize .cda format. That means you may have to convert songs that you have downloaded from the web, but both Acoustica and MusicMatch have software packages that can convert various audio format files into .cda format.

iTunes and I think Windows Media Player (haven't used it in a long time and don't have access to a Windows computer at the moment) both have a burn to Cd option.
