How do I copy a mix CD without having gaps between the tracks? I'm using Windows Media Player to burn the CD.
Cheers!

It could be wrong but it looks like you might not be able to do it in windows media player... someone correct me if i'm wrong!
Personally I use iTunes, I think its a much better player than media player and its really simple to remove the 2 second gap, its just in the main options...
Alternativly you could download Nero, that can also remove it quite easily!
You can download a 30day full working trial of it from there website though...
www.nero.com
That will at least sort you out short term while you try and sort something more perminant out though.
Although nero isnt exactly hard to get hold of off LimeWire or something...
I use SoundForge and add "Track Markers" which will save the hassle of chopping up the mix. All you do is add a marker where the mix starts and continue to do this all the way through the mix and then burn it on to CD, and Viola! You can skip tracks.
Note: Don't convert the tracks to MP3s at any stage, the MP3 conversion process puts little gaps at the start/end of each track so your mix will stop for a split second every time you mix hits a marker.
CDBurnerPro XP can copy music with or without gaps. I think it's a bit of an alternative to Nero, plus it's free.

To my knowledge nero express isn't free
I didnt think it was either...

Already mentioned that .
ha so you did, teach me for not reading through fully.
good piece of software it is.
I've tried that, it doesn't recognise my CD burner, which is nearly 7 years old.
