<<<I'd use my roommate's XP Toshiba Satellite.>>> We're not surprised that your doesn't work. We're surprised that his did. It's certainly possible to design a microphone amplifier that doesn't overload. Designing one usually means a substandard amplifier for other, more normal high quality work. Th...

Without the iTunes step in the middle, you created a Data CD, not a Music CD. You could have put the AUP file on there, a spreadsheet, a video, two text documents, and a Photoshop file and they would all play in their respective applications when you put the CD into your Mac.
