Music on an audio CD can be copied into a music folder on your computer. When you use the Apple iTunes software to copy the audio songs onto your computer, those files will be saved in the iTunes folder. These songs can then be transferred from the iTunes library to any iPod that you own. Performing these actions will give you the ability to listen to music located on several different CDs all at the same time.
