What do I need to do to get the songs in the order that I want instead of alphabetical order? I have tried a few different ways and I always end up sorted aphabetical. Any ideas?

What program are you using to make your CD's?

Musicmatch 9.0, but I have tried it on a couple of other programs with the same result. Maybe I'm just going about it wrong.

I encounter the same thing. Doesn't really bother me though.

You can always put a number at the begining of the track title to order them, just remember you need to lead with 01, or 001

A lot of programs will let you customize the file names before you rip your CDs. I use Rio music manager and it is under tools/options/copy CD/file naming. it allows you to chose things like track number, album name, artist name, genre, and also separaters: '-' , '/', ':', etc. I just have it include track number first so the songs are always order like the CD.

I use nero. You just add the songs in the order you want, or drag the songs, ect... It's really easy.
