Have never burned CDs, but I assume I would take our CD player (which i'm pretty sure has a burning mode), plug it in to my computer, and look up "how to burn CDs"

I see you have no idea how this works...

You need a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, or DVD-RW drive in your computer, or externally to write to any of those formats. A DVD-RW can write, or burn (because the laser is literally burning the information onto the disk) to all four formats of disk.

Don't forget the + version of some of those formats.

A reasonable guess!

Some computer CD drives (They were called Burners at the start, but near the end most CD-rom drives would also burn CDs) would do it with software. It would eventually be nearly as easy as copying data to a USB drive.

Chances are you could put in a blank disc and the computer will present a folder as a representation of the disc. Copy whatever into the folder and click the burn button on the top right of the folder
