Again, other folks are going to be able to give you specific advice, but if 
you burn them on the cd as mp3s, then only mp3 players will play them.  To 
get them to play in a cd player, you have to change the format to wav.  
Various folks have recommended various softwares to do this, including 
Winamp, Earjam and Adaptec.
