I am looking for a site that you could send MP3s to. The service would
create a personal CD.

While I won't rule it out, I suspect finding such a service will be
difficult.  For one, the RIAA overzealously protects copyrighted works
(to the extent of claiming copyright on works it has no title to) and
scares many potential vendors of such a service.  For another, the
cost of bandwidth to reasonably send your mp3s to a company quickly
exceeds the cost of a CD burner (about $20 for a cheap one) and
software (free, or up to about $100, depending on your choice) to make
the CD yourself.  Not only that, sending you back the CD would cost
money, perhaps $0.50, which further favors the do it yourself method. 
Or have a friend do it.

Could you perhaps explain, if I haven't discouraged you already, what
application you have in mind which would make economic sense from both
your perspective and that of someone providing the service?

Thank you haversian-ga for your enlightening comments. There is no
economic advantage. I was simply looking for a service, not unlike a
photolab, that I could send my choice of MP3s to and they would burn
the CD and mail it to me. Your comments make sense ... but for someone
who would only need a CD occasionally a service like the one I am
looking for would save the time to acquire, learn & burn. I appreciate
the time that you took to post! Brudenell
