Re: nero and audacity

Both Nero and Audacity support "Microsoft PCM 16 bit 44100Hz WAV" format.
This is the standard (only) format for normal (standard) audio CDs.

Here's the page in the Audacity manual about themes: http://audacityteam.org/manual/index.php?title=Theme_Preferences Note that Themes are only partially supported at present - there are plans to develop greater theme support in the future.
