Hope this helps..

CDRCue Sheet Editor will allow you to edit the cue sheet easily (if youd want to add song titles and artists to each track) and can be found at http://www.dcsoft.com/products.htm. If you want to navigate a full album (i.e. 85mb mp3) by track then i recomend Mp3Cue. Its a winamp plugin that allows you to go though a full album/set if you have the cue sheet. Get it at http://www.guerillasoft.com/mp3cue. Hope this helps! Lemme know if you need anything else.

That's what a cue sheet is for. It helps you setting cue points so that when you burn a cd with the help of a cue file you split up one big mp3 file into smaller pieces. Basically a cue sheet looks like this:

FILE "\name of the file" MP3
TRACK 01 AUDIO
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 AUDIO
INDEX 01 06:15:00
TRACK 03 AUDIO
INDEX 01 12:12:00

When you're about to burn your mp3 on cd with e.g. CDRWin, the only thing you have to do is load a cue sheet. The burning program recognizes when it has to set a cue point so in the end you'll have your big mp3 file split into separate tracks.

Hope this clears things up
