Re: music CD burned from itunes won't play in home...

One thing comes to mind: some cd players are just pickier than others when it comes to burned CDs. I've heard it suggested that when this happens to burn another CD at the slower speeds if not the slowest speed.

Yes burn at a slower speed. Also don't use cheap media. And some CD players depending on brand and age just will not play CD-r's.

Thanks folks! I changed the itunes burning preferences from 'maximum speed' to 1X and burned another copy. I tried it in my home CD player and it worked fine, so I'll pop it in the car and check that one too.
The acid test will be if my son in law's father can play it at his house!

I appreciate the help a lot and thank you for the time. I learned something new on this issue.
