I'm trying to make a music Cd for one of my friends. The Cd is just your average Cd and will be played on your average CD player. Does it matter if some of the songs are in Mp3 format, or do I need to convert them to another type of file?
Also, do Cd's have regions, like DVD's do? I ask this as I'm in Australia and I'm sending the Cd to Iceland.
Any help is muchly appreciated!

If you want to make a truly compatible audio CD, then you will need to burn it as an Audio CD. You'll find this option in most CD burning software such as Nero. It will even handle the conversion from MP3 for you.
There are no region codes for CDs.

It depends on what type of player your friend has. If the player doesn't say anything about MP3s on it then it won't play them. You'll have to change the format or tell your friend to get a CD/MP3 player. They don't cost that much.
CDs don't have regions. I've gotten CDs imported from Britain and they play just fine.

It actually varies through out different cd players. So in other words there are many that can play in MP3 format, yet others can't. I actually burned a CD for when I am on road trips, yet when I try to hear the CD it wouldn't work.

Most CD players only play CD's, not in the .mp3 format. You might inquire of your friend if he has a CD player that will play.mp3's though, as some players will also play them, but they're in the minority. There's an example of one of those at the below link.

Anything burned as an actual audio disk should play on any machine, including most DVD players. After that it gets complicated. If you have a few mp3s thrown in the disk may become completely unreadable. Use of folders and RW disks sometimes make a difference, too. The only safe course is to go on-line and browse the manual for the exact make and model of the intended machine.

Technically you ought to rework them to WAV information and then burn them onto a cd. in spite of the undeniable fact that, something like Nero will convert them for you so all you should do is elect a CD AUDIO challenge, drag on your mp3's into it and burn it. be particular you pick a CD audio challenge and not in any respect basically an information cd in spite of the undeniable fact that, that isn't artwork.
