This file format of a CD is dependent on the program you use to rip the data off the CD. Normally it is in the Mp3 format, but if you use Windows Media Player to rip the songs off it will be converted into .Wav format. - CascadeNeko

What is use of mp3 format?

MP3 is an audio compression file format. Music CDs you purchase from the store come in a wav format. If you use a CD Ripper like Express Rip, you can then save these songs onto your computer in an mp3 file format. Then you can use an audio CD burning program, like Express Burn, to create a music CD with MP3 file formats. Notice that your original CD will only hold about 12-15 songs and your new mp3 CD will hold around 100 songs. That is one of the many advantages of using an mp3 format.

If you have a regular car stereo than you cannot leave your files in the original mp3 format because they will not be read. Before burning your CD you have to convert the files into a regular music file. All CD burning programs allow you to do that, there is usually an option to either burn a music CD or an mp3 disc. Choose to burn a music CD. Some car CD players will accept mp3 discs in which case you can leave the files in their original format. The benefits of this is that you can fit a lot more songs on a CD and the track names will be displayed (where possible).
