questions about burning music?

Question

I am trying to burn a podcast i downloaded. It wont burn in i-tunes, it only burns 2 minutes of it. I tried windos media and it said that I might need to buy need discs or adjust the speed or something. I use memorex cd-r 52x 700 mb and they are 80 min.
The file looks like this-
Duration:1:16:01 Type:mpeg layer 3 audio bit rate:128 kbps size:69.6 mb
Can anyone help? And yes I tried to download it 3 times and the same thing happened. No, there isnt anything wrong with the file.

Answer 1

Some podcast files are MP3 format but others are MP4 format. The latter may be a reason for this problem since Media Player does not offer native support for MP4 playback :

Look under "File formats that are not supported"

MPEG-4 video content can be encoded and stored in an .asf file container by using Windows Media Tools and Windows Media Encoder. You can then play these files in Windows Media Player. For more information about Microsoft and MPEG-4 support, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

You may use third party software to convert the file to MP3:

Answer 2

nicely the area is that inspite of in the experience that your CD has seven hundred mb the period is longer than the CD can help. As get collectively your CD can carry eighty m. although the period is a million hour with 16 m. you spot what i'm holding.
