If you are having trouble duplicating music CDs, I am compiling information from various sources. You are welcome to add your input as well.
Normally we want them to play in our car.

Here is info from the web:
Unless your car stereo specifies that it will play an MP3, MP3 music files burned onto a CD won't play in your car's stereo. In some instances, because of media protection encryption, burned MP3s auto convert to MP4 and will not play in your car stereo. Car stereos usually will only play "Audio" files.
Why won't the CD I burned play in my car?
CD-RWs are 70% less reflective than normal CDs, and many stereo and car CD player lasers are not powerful enough to read them. To work around this issue, burn audio CDs only to high-quality, brand name CD-R (compact disc, recordable) media. If you are using a CD-R, try these solutions: Solution 1: Lower the burn speed
What kind of CD do I need to burn music to my car?
A
data CD containing for example MP3 or WAV files will play happily on
your computer but is unlikely to play in a standalone CD player or
in-car CD player (note that some modern CD players will play data CDs).
An audio CD will play on any standalone or in-car CD player and in your computer and in modern DVD players.Jun 19, 2020
When buying blank CDs for burning, it is strongly recommended that you purchase good quality CD-Rs (that can be burnt just once) and not the rewritable CD-RWs.
Burning software
In order to burn an audio CD you will need a CD burning application.
Most computers already come with media player software that can burn
CDs. For example, you can use Windows Media Player built into Windows or Music built into Macs. Ensure in either Windows Media Player or Music
that you select the option for burning a "Music CD" and not a "Data CD"
as mentioned above, unless you choose Audio CD, the CD will not play on
most CD players.
Windows Media Player
In Windows Media Player:
- Use the Burn tab
- Drag the files you want to burn to CD onto its "Burn list"
- Click on "Start burn".
| Windows Media Player 11 will not accept
WAV files for burning if they are dragged straight into a burn list
without having previously been played in Media Player. You will see a
red symbol and a "length of file cannot be determined" error. To solve
this problem, drag the file into the Media Player Library or into a
playlist, then from there into a burn list. Windows Media Player 12 does
not have this problem.
- Also, neither Windows Media Player 11 or 12 can burn AIFF files, so you must export from Audacity as WAV.
|
Other burning software
You can also use a standalone Windows burning application like CDBurnerXP, Deep Burner or Nero (or Burn or Toast for Mac) to burn your exported files. Most Linux distributions include Brasero or K3B
for CD burning. When using standalone burning applications, open the
files from within that software, do not drag and drop them from your
file manager. Once again do not forget to select the setting to burn an
"Audio CD" or "Music CD" as explained above.
Common Pitfalls
- Wrong sample rate: Most CD burning software expects all files to be at 44100 Hz.
- Unsupported formats: Some CD burning software does not support compressed formats such as MP3, OGG, or M4A/AAC.
Metadata and CD-Text
Even if you use Audacity's Metadata Tags editor
to add metadata such as Title, Artist and Genre to your exported WAV
files, that metadata does not get automatically burned to the CD. You
can set Apple Music/iTunes and some other burning applications (but not
Windows Media Player) to burn metadata to each track as separate CD-Text.
Providing your CD burner supports CD-Text, a standalone CD player that
supports CD-Text will then be able to display each track's metadata.
You can also use a Cue Sheet to add CD-Text in burning applications that support Cue Sheets.

Here is their response:
Which application did you use to burn the music to CD?
• Does this happen only with this CD?
Your CD player might not be able to play the CD for several reasons, including the following:
o It can't play data CDs.
o It can't play data CDs that haven't been finalized. For more information, seewhen I burn a CD, does the Player "finalize" or "close" the disc?
o It can play data CDs, but can't play the type of files on the disc (for example, WMA files).
o It can play data CDs, but can't play protected files (for example, a file you purchased from an online store).
o It can play data CDs, but can't play the particular brand or type (for example, CD-RW) of disc that you used.
You can try one of the following solutions:
Step 1: Burn an audio CD (not a data CD) on CD-R (not CD-RW) media.
Step 2: Burn a data CD that only includes MP3 files. If all of your songs are in the WMA format, you’ll need to use another program to convert them to the MP3 format first, and then add the new files to your Player library. To find an audio conversion program, try searching the web for “wma mp3 file converter."
Step 3: Use another provider's CD burning or authoring program to burn a finalized data CD.

How to convert CDA files to MP3 (or Wav/Wma/Vorbis/Flac) with FreeRIP
The first thing you must know is .CDA files are not audio files, they are just a way that Windows uses to let you access an Audio CD index. When I say that they are not audio files, I mean that they do not contain sampled sound at all! This means that you cannot convert them to another format (such like MP3), simply because they do not contain audio samples! How to convert CDA files to MP3? If you copy a .CDA file to our hard drive and try to play it with an audio player, nothing happens. And this is why you need FreeRIP to extract audio tracks from an Audio CD and convert CDA files to MP3.
To extract audio tracks from an Audio CD to MP3 (or another supported format) use FreeRIP as described here in FreeRIP user manual.
If you copied some .CDA file to your hard drive or to a different media.....sorry, you can't convert them to MP3 format. You will need to find the original CD and rip its tracks with FreeRIP and to convert CDA files to MP3.
Note: The problem is that the .cda files weren't visible at all!

notes from a forum responce: Maybe Nissan's player supports M4a format. That is the format in which songs are converted in iTunes for iPhones. You can try converting one mp3 file to M4a format using Imtoo audio converter.
