Mac users help, burning cds question

Is there a way to burn my song (mp3 format) to a cd from the desktop without having to use the itunes cd burn method? It seems that if i try to just drop my song onto a blank cd and burn it, the cd does not become an audio cd, it becomes a data cd and only computers can play the song. Can i change the format somehow so that if i just drop the song onto a blank cd , it becomes an audio cd so i can play it in my car? I have used itunes to do this but sometimes itunes can be buggy so it doesnt burn too well.

Also, when i just drop my mp3 song onto a blank cd... I check "get info" and the format is Mac OS extended

However.. the correct format i am after is CD audio file system

Try using Roxio's Toast. That should do what you want.

Probably u have an outdate version of itunes, in preferences there's the options: audio cd, data cd and mp3 cd
