The canonical method is to convert the MP3s to PCM with program like =
mpg123,
then burn the PCM files to disc using a program like cdrecord.

There are also many programs that can do it in one step.  Some are just
shells, like mp3burn.  There are MP3-to-CD programs in the ports tree.
There are also MP3-to-PCM and PCM-to-CD programs in the ports tree. =20

If you ask 11 people which program is best or how to do this, you'll get =
11
different answers.  Open source is wonderful like that.

Here are some starting points:
