Beavis - no can do as computers are currently 200 miles apart (long story) and not going to be able to bring it back anytime soon.

mindonstrike - If the amount of data you are burning to cd is greater than a single CD can hold, then Roxio has the capability of dividing the data up for you to fit on multiple CDs. As I understand it, Roxio doesn't split the individual files, but determines the next file won't fit and asks for a second or successive CD. I don't know if Roxio applies some compression or not but I wouldn't think so.

As far as going out and buying an external device, be it hard drive or USB drive, I can burn CDs at roughly 10 cents apiece all day and not spend that kind of money.

nreel - I really was hoping you were right about the Read Only, however it appears that Roxio must set the attributes to whatever they were previously. I had my wife check and none of the files I transferred were set to read only.

As I said in my first post, I am in the process of burning just enough files to fill one CD at a time, so Roxio doesn't mess them up. I won't know if this works until the end of the week, when I head to Houston.
