save as a wav file
use nero/roxio/cd_architect or similar program to burn

most pcs come with a basic version of nero/roxio that will work to do jsut a basic cd so
if you dont need really advanced features no more cost

I would recommend reading the full article posted by waxcylinder.

A very good free CD burning program that is not listed on that page is CDBurnerXP (Windows only)
You can get it here: http://cdburnerxp.se/

On Linux I'd recommend k3b.

On MacOS-X you can use itunes or some other app from the bundled software.

Possibly the best CD burner there is (IMHO).

Some time ago I saw a review of nero for linux, in which they comparaed nero to k3b. k3b won in almost every aspect :)

you would have to work hard to make a burner that doesnt beat nero in every respect. those guys may be good hackers, but they dont know how to design a program that is easy to use without problems.

Nero is generally accepted to be one of the best commercial CD burning applications for desktop PCs. If you have trouble using it you could try the Lite version which has a much simpler interface, though for Windows I would personally recommend CDBurnerXP, which has the added advantage of being free software.

I was never much of a nero fan... specially the most recent versions with too many eye candy and features and wizards and whatever... nero version 10 years ago was nice, but now i'd prefer k3b a thousand times more :)
