4.
Then click the red UPLOAD button and wait for the screen to change to "Success" (BE PATIENT -- audio files can take 5-10 minutes!)
Do NOT copy songs DIRECTLY from a CD ! (".cda" files) THEY WILL NOT WORK! YOU MUST "RIP" THEM FIRST! .
↓
Why?
Files ending in .cda contain NO music or words.
They only "point" to audio files hidden on the CD.
"Ripping" converts those hidden files!

Instructions for Converting (Ripping) .cda Files
1. Insert CD into computer. 2. If popup window appears, just click "Rip from CD" and skip to #8 below. 3. If no window appears, open Windows Media Player. 4. Click "Rip" tab (toward top of screen). 5. Check boxes of songs to be converted. 6. Click "Start Rip" button. 7. Songs are converted when "ripped to library" appears by titles. 8. They should now be in .wma or .mp3 format and ready for uploading!
The best audio files to use are either .mp3, .wma or .m4a files.
For lyrics and other text, use any txt format (.doc, .txt, .rtf, .docx, .wps, etc.)
If you scan your material, any graphics format is ok (.jpg, .gif, .tif, .pdf, etc.)
Do NOT use video or movies (.mov, .wmv), .cda, .wpl or .itl files
We also suggest converting (huge) .wav files to .mp3 or .wma
