Your PC has recording software called Windows Media Player. You copy or download music to the Windows Media Player Media Library and can then organize or copy the music files. You can copy Window Media files that have a

.wma extension, .mp3 files, or .wav files to a CD by using a CD-RW drive or a DVD Writer drive. You can also use Windows Media Player to copy music files to a portable device or memory card.
