Building a music library
Use Windows Media Player to build a music
library. You can organize your music
tracks
(individual MP3 or WMA audio files) by
categories, find a track quickly by sorting, and
add information to a music file.
You can add music tracks to your music library
by:
■
Creating MP3 or WMA files —When you
create MP3 or WMA files from the tracks on
your music CD, Windows Media Player
automatically adds these files to your
music library.
■
Dragging and Dropping —Drag and drop
files from Windows Explorer or your
desktop to the music library.
Caution
During the download
process, WMA and
MP3 files may become
corrupt. If you are
having trouble
listening to, or working
with, a downloaded
file, try downloading
the file again.
■
Downloading files from the
Internet
—When you are connected to the
Internet, WMA and MP3 files that you
download are automatically added to your
music library.
