How to burn M4A files to an audio CD
M4A (AAC) won't play in most CD decks as files. cdBurner converts them to Red Book audio so the disc plays in any player.
Step by step
Connect the burn agent
Open onlinecdburner.com and connect the one-time burn agent.
Pick “Audio CD”
Choose the Audio CD source instead of Files.
Add your tracks
Add your M4A files — up to about 80 minutes of music — and put them in order.
Insert a CD-R and burn
Keep Finalize on so the disc plays in any CD player or car stereo, then click Burn.

Why cdBurner is different
There is no other tool on the internet that burns real, physical discs straight from a web page. cdBurner is the first of its kind.
- 100% free — no trial, no watermark, no nag screens.
- Private — files are written locally and never uploaded to a server.
- No bloatware — one small signed helper, not a heavy install.
- Built on Windows' native IMAPI2 engine, so your discs read everywhere.
