Burning 90min cdr?

[smokinal]

I bought some 90min CD-R but neither Itunes nor Media Player will acknowledge it's 90 minutes. They both think it's 80, as usual, and want this playlist on 2 cd's; but it's less than 90min and I want it on 1

Ideas?
Workarounds?

Q: Why does my burner recognize 90 minutes CD-R as 80 minutes CD-R?
A: A standard CD-R is capable of recording 80 min of audio or 700MB of data, until recently a new 90-99 min format has been developed utilizing "Overburn"; however because Overburn feature is not standardized feature offered on all CD-RW burner in the market, not all CD Burner can recognize the extra storage space present on the disc. To be able to used the extra 10-20 min of extra recording space, you need to have a supporting hardware and software and the correct software setting.

Throw your cd player in the trash and use USB drive like a normal person?
