I'd like to burn a music CD. For some reason, I've never done it before.

I use iTunes 7.6.2 and all my music has been ripped from CDs at AAC 128. I have Burn, but I've never used it.

1) What kind of CD should I use? CD-R or CD-W? Any particular brand?

2) Can I burn AAC files to a blank CD or do I need to convert them to mp3? Is there a loss in sound quality in converting and then burning?

3) I have Burn. Is that adequate for my needs?

4) Are there any web sites you like that talk about these matters in depth?

5) How many songs can I fit on a blank CD? Will Burn tell me this?
