I was under the impression that you could record about 150 mp3's on to one CD (roughly 5Mb per average length song), and in fact have seen it done. However when I drag and drop my mp3 files for burning (I use Adaptec CD Creator), even though they are only 5Mb each, the software measures the used capacity of the CD by time rather than file size. So after it detects 75 mins worth of music it says "that's all, folks", despite there being only 60Mb or so of files.

Am I doing something wrong?
