selected, you will be instructed to copy them onto a blank 80 min. CD-R media.
• Blank CD-R Media:
Choosing “Blank CD-R” as the temporary storage location, you will be 
instructed to copy your music files onto a blank CD-R you’ve inserted. After you 
are finished, you will be instructed to finalize the CD-R disc.
