Question Does size matter when ripping a CD?

I have been downloading quite a few albums/live sets recently and I want to rip them onto cd. I downloaded ISOS 1 yesterday and the time was ok and the file was just over 700mb, but it copied ok. Before I download any more I need to know whether the size of the wav file matters at all. I always check the time first so that not a problem, but if a file is a lot over 700 mb will it matter?

No matter what girls tell you size does matter
Actually, it doesnt really because the cd is burnt in another format, as long as the tracks you are putting on the cd is less than the cd can hold (74-80 min) you should be fine.

lol! you misunderstood, they're 700mb+ when I've converted the mp3's to wave files in order to make an audio cd out of it.

Size doesn't always matter, it's how you use it.

Size matters in a different perspective

Most CDR software (like Nero, for example) convert from mp3 to uncompressed wav on the fly while recording to cd... :P

So unless you have very old comp or very old software, not sure why you convert to wav first
