Hey guys. I have a burned CD with a song I mixed myself. The thing is, I did it from another computer, and now back home, I only see a .cda file on the CD. I can play it no problem with WMP, but how do I transfer the song to my computer??
 
.CDA aka "Compact Disc Audio" it is the type of file that is read by standard home & car CD players.
"Copying" the .CDA file and "pasting" it onto your hdd will result in a file about 20kb in size.
To put it onto your pc you will need to RIP it into a MP3 or other digital format.
 
OK, how can I do that.

If you don't already have version 10 of Windows Media Player, then download it from here
Then in Windows Media PLayer, goto
TOOLS>OPTIONS>RIP MUSIC
and in the "Rip Settings" area, select "mp3" from the "format" drop down box, then click Apply.

Now put the cd in the drive and select the "RIP" tab in the main window of media player.
