That article is for importing audio CDs. It does not apply to MP3 CDs.
An MP3 CD is just a CD with a bunch of files on it. Copy the files to your hard drive, remove the CD, and then use the iTunes command File > Add Folder to Library.

Thats true, but most CDs comes out as WMA. and iTunes automatically converts it to m4a (i think). Plus I forgot this link: iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format
Allowing rosicaformosa to convert his OR her iTunes songs into MP3.

To copy MP3 CD's into Itunes
1. create a new playlist
2. insert disc
3. select 1st tract ( left click on it)
4. scroll down to last tract, hold shift key down and select last tract, this will select all tracts
5. left click on selected tracts and slide it over to new playlist and drop it
6. it will start copying and will create an album in the music folder

Except your MP3 CD did not show up in iTunes.
Only AudioCDs will show up in iTunes.
By selecting the CD (this menas it was an AudioCD) in iTunes and dragging, iTunes imported and converted the songs.
It was an audio MP3 CD--said so right on the package. When I insert a normal CD it just starts copying into Itunes, well this one showed 90 tracts and 5.7 hours but did not start copying. It showed all the tracts. Is Itunes your default player for audio CD's? You can go to the control panel >auto play to check on this. Also I have not done the latest Itunes update as I try to avoid them for as long as possible if everything is working. I hope it works for you.
