How to Burn a Text to a CD on Media Player With Vista

Windows Media Player allows users to burn media files such as Windows Media Audio (WMA), MP3 and movie files. Windows Media Player is also capable of burning files that aren't media-based such as text documents. Though burning data is not its primary purpose, it can perform this operation with the same speed and accuracy as it burns the multimedia files.
