Not sure what you are trying to do. Don't see how this could be related to your burner, but rather to the software that you are using. If you are trying to import mp3 files from a regular or cdg audio disc, then any one of several programs is capable of doing that. I don't have the latest microstudio, but I don't think that it is capable of importing and burning discs from mp3 files. (My version definitely is not) If you need software capable of doing that, you can check into Music Match, Roxio, etc. (I think that Micrsostudio should have this feature added in, since I have seen forum entries where the admin. is telling people to remove other programs that Microstudio is not compatible with, like Roxio. But overall, I don't have compatibility problems)
Good Luck
PS. Since your entry sounds like you are blaming your burner, maybe you have some appropriate software already and just haven't probably selected the burner in prep for importing or burning mp3s???
