Do you burn one track per CD or many?

I do one track per CD and prefer it that way, but burning more tracks per CD doesnt require a lot of CD cases..

what do you do?

One track per CD. Otherwise I lose tracks because the label is all cluttered with writing. Also, I like to arrange the tracks in key and some remixes of a track aren't in the same key.

i burn 10 tracks usually on one cd and than make a copy of it, so if i want to play a track from a cd that is playing i take the other copy and play it. its very funky imo:)

I used to put anywhere from 1 to 4 tracks on a CD, as long as I could label it on the actual CD without having to carry around printouts, which I will lose and spill drinks on.

I prefer to burn one per CD to arrange them by key, but due to lack of time I have been burning about 8-10 per disc and keeping a list on paper.

I feel like such a poon looking at a piece of paper while I'm mixing.

One track per CD? Yeah I agree..a waste. I just put however many songs there are on a release or by an artist. I just do everything by artist, unless there is only one track and then I do the 8 or 10 track per CD thing and make a copy, or if there's only one or two tracks I really like from a particular artist...

50 or so 320kpbs MP3s on one disc sorted by genre

eg. TRANCE 6 (MAY), next month or month after it'll be TRANCE 7 (JUNE)
, and HOUSE 4 (JAN-MARCH)

So all i have to do is think of the genre and roughly when I purchased the download...

i usually have abt 9 to 10 tracks in a cd...

Have the cd labelled ie. disc 1,2 ... etc
Organise the tracks using word/excel...
Search tracks from the the printed doc.

I think searching songs from the label in the cd case is just too slow imo... sometime really need to mix another track in fast.
