I have an audio CD which looks like it's going to run over 80 min., and I really don't want to cut any tracks. I've heard that I can either overwrite the CD, or purchase 90 min. or even 99 min. CD-R's.

Can Toast 7.1 do either of these? If so, how?

And how would either play in a standard CD player once the disc was burned? Is one better than the other?

Thanks

All My Best,
Jeffrey

Toast cannot do either of those. You could make an MP3 CD that is playable in a MP3 CD player if you converted the audio to MP3 with iTunes prior to importing to Toast.

How about if I convert the files to FLAC before burning...?

And will those play in a standard CD player? (I'm afraid my family don't have CD MP3 players, so it has to be a standard CD).

You're in a tough spot. Do they have a DVD player? Those usually can play MP3 CDs. You also could use Toast to make a Music DVD that is playable on any DVD player.

One does, the rest don't

How about an auto-reverse cassette player? Maybe they have an old Walkman. You could record to two sides of a 90 minute cassette and there would just be the brief pause as the tape reversed direction.
