Converting Regular CD Media to Audio Only[Audio Cd Burner] CD media...

In order to burn audio CD's on Audio CD burners you have to buy the Audio CD disks. Is it possible to convert regular blank CD's to Audio CD disks? If so can someone point me to a site. Thanks
Scope!
 
Any blank cdr should work on burning audio disk. Does not have to be a audio blank. Always worked for me.
 
"audio CD" blanks are basically regular CDRs with a special tax added to the price, supposedly to pay back the music industry for the fact that people use them to copy audio, rather than buying another copy. 🙂 However they also contain a bit of information in the ATIP (Absolute Time In Pre-groove) -- which also stores data for a burner telling it what type of dye is used, how much data the disc can hold, et cetera -- which marks them as audio CDRs. A standalone CDR burner will only burn to that type of disc (so that it guarantees that anybody that's using a standalone burner, which is only used to copy CDs, is paying the tax on audio discs).
