[trains are bad]

This is going to sound like a silly question but I've never had occasion to burn an actual audio CD. I have two WAV files (both sides of an LP) I want to burn to an audio CD. I have EAC and foobar. I thought I could just drag the WAV files to the CD drive and let windows burn them, but it says it can't.

You're looking to create a Redbook audio CD. Any burning software worth its salt will have the function to create one. You specify the audio files, and the software will convert the file on its own and burn it.

If you're a Windows Media Player user, then you can use it to burn audio CDs. The only thing I'm not certain of is whether it supports WAV files or only MP3/WMA files. I would think that it supports WAV files.

Nero - surprised it hasn't been mentioned. Widely supported by other appz and is well respected as a reliable burning application with a massive range of functionality.

I used to use Nero but now I use the freely available DeepBurner and also ISO recorder. ISO recorder integrates into the system shell so there is no actual program to run. DeepBurner will do audio cd's and is a program. Very light on resources and never a bad burn yet.

Can Alcohol 120% actually be used to create a "data" or "audio" CD? Can't it only burn CD images (.iso, .img, .nrg, etc.)?

you might want to use an audio editing tool like SoundForge, Audacity, CoolEdit, etc to chop the wave files into separate tracks...

it's usually either very difficult or not possible to split a wave file accurately using cd burning software
