I am downloading music ( Legally ) and find that a lot of the files are more than one cd can handle. In some cases I would need up to five cd's, as with a box set for example.
Is there any way once it is downloaded to break up a file so that I can put it onto cd's?
Thank you in advance for your help.

If you mean that its 1 mp3 and contains a bunch of songs with no tracks, then you can just open it in some audio editing software and break it into multiple tracks. Ive done it in Sonar numerous times. Just my thoughts, maybe im not fully understanding the question
 
are you downloading mp3's? If so, you can burn them onto a CD-R as a "data disk" and use an mp3 player to play them back...I haven't done the math, but I know that I've burned hundreds of (@ 4 minute songs) onto a single data disk, so a 5 CD book on tape deal should fit easily.

If you're burning them as an audio disk, you will run out of time somewhere around an hour or so.
 
Or, yeah...pull the file into any editor and break them up like jj said.

I checked out sonar, and at $900 plus or $450 plus no way! I don't have a home recording studio I would like to know if there is a cheap or no cost editor, to break down one continuos mp3 file that is really long, and be able to put it onto cd's.

Thank you

google "Kristal" recording software. I've never used it, but it's free, and it should have editing capabilities to allow you to do what you're trying to do.
