Yay! That means rmgman and mem_313 also probably got theirs. It'll be a few more days before lunar_1963 gets his, the package having to whoosh through that great undersea pneumatic tube on its way to Rotterdam.
Yes yes YES! tis here.. Just in time for me to go to my company christmas party tomorrow night.. that will be my "getting dressed" CD!
JAG, I got my CD(s) in the mail today! Haven't listened yet (or really looked at it too closely), but wanted to let you know that I had received mine.

Bullshit unless it's 3% of wholesale maybe. I looked at walmart just now, 10 for $10 regular, 10 for $13 audio.
Things may have changed over the past few years regarding retail price, especially when it comes to Walmart. That said, there is still the protection scheme and reduced recording time to deal with, never mind that the audio CDs won't work with some computer optical drives.
Bugger. Ok, now I know what to buy when my ten pack runs out. Grrrrr.
Yep... sorry you fell prey to this scheme.
And to complicate matters, an "audio CD" may or may not work in one's computer. They were created for said component recorders, like the Denon pictured below.
The Recordable Audio CD is designed to be used in a consumer audio CD recorder {a separate component device, as opposed to a computer}. These consumer audio CD recorders use SCMS (Serial Copy Management System), an early form of digital rights management (DRM), to conform to the AHRA (Audio Home Recording Act). The Recordable Audio CD is typically somewhat more expensive than CD-R due to (a) lower volume and (b) a 3% AHRA royalty used to compensate the music industry for the making of a copy.<28>

I can't seem to find audio CDs in any stores here that hold over 80 mins. So yeah, all my discs are about that many tracks too.
Do not use audio CDs. You are paying a premium for nothing, with a surtax going to the megolithic music conglomerates.
You can burn any audio onto a data CD any day of the week, and these discs play in all devices. At places like Best Buy, you just have to look for blank data CDs in another part of the store.
Hello fellow members of Culture Club: The Mixtape Years...
I'm making playlists with maybe 11, 12, 13 songs... and that's a discful. Is there a way to compress tracks out of iTunes to increase the number of songs I can put on?

Interesting. I had no issues on my itunes getting 20 on there. I also changed all mp4's to mp3's. Just make sure to back up the 4's before you do that.

Dear Chris,
Miss you on the circuit. How's Martina? I heard you kids bought a condo together.
Anyway, compression doesn't apply when you're making an audio CD. The limit is number of minutes, which is 74 or 80. If you're making an MP3 CD — which may or may not play in car CD players — then the limit is the overall filesize, and that's either 600-some MB or 700 MB. 700 MB is a lot and you can fill that up with enough tunes to last a few full matches.

Hmmmm...... I got 20 tracks on mine, but then most were under three minutes in playing time.
Can't help you with iTunes, but maybe this alternative may be of use to you.
I mixed my tracks using (the free) Audacity, then burned my CDs using J River's Media Center. Any burner software will do, however. This link provides many sources of free burners for the Mac.
(Why everyone thinks iTunes is the only available tool is beyond me!)
