Burning a CD From My Music

If you want to create a CD that contains music from different parts of your music collection, you can drag the names of specific songs or albums from My Music to the blank CD to include that music. You can also drag playlists to the CD.

Tip: Yahoo! Music Jukebox Plus includes improvements to help you rip and burn CDs faster, and print CD labels and cases. For more information, see the Yahoo! Music Jukebox Plus Help.

  4. Select one or more tracks in My Music, then drag them on to the blank CD in the left navigation pane.
