You'll have to cut your mp3 collection into 74 minute sections and burn
each section of files to a seperate CD. Audio CDs are raw 44100kHz signed
(2s complement) 16bit shorts (motorola) with 2 channels. cdrecord will
take in wav or au files so you'll have to convert your mp3s to this format
first. mpg123 should do the job for you.
