Question how to add one song to cd audio disk

[jimdagys]

I have a cd audio disk with about 60 minutes of music and I want to copy and add another 3 minute song. The additional 3 minute song is now in mp3 format. I know a quick and dirty way to do this is rip the disk to mp3, add the 3 minute mp3 and then use Nero to convert/burn to a standard cd audio disk. However, I don't like the idea of converting the original disk twice, as it is already is the cd audio format. Also, I would like to use Imageburn as my burner, since my old copy of Nero doesn't work on Windows7. I also would like to use free software to complete the task.

Use CDEX to rip the CD to .wav files.
Use CDEX to convert the MP3 file to a .wav file.
Burn new disc with ImgBurn:

*ImgBurn can also convert the MP3 to .wav for you as well.....your choice*

I remain amazed that after 9 years of membership and 1000+ posts that the most trivial of tasks absolutely baffles you and you are unable to do any research of your own to answer a simple question like this.

Laziness? :P
