using MP3 or WMA encoding, one CD-R can hold about 12 or so albums ...
- playable of course via a PC, but also in some modern car CD players, plus also
more & more on modern home stereo machines. If you're happy to play music
via a modern DVD player through your TV's sound system, which on some
systems can be pretty good what with mutli-channel speakers, then upto
about 80 albums can fit onto a single DVD±R (navigate on-screen).
