The canonical method is to convert the MP3s to PCM with program like mpg123,
then burn the PCM files to disc using a program like cdrecord.
There are also many programs that can do it in one step. Some are just
shells, like mp3burn. There are MP3-to-CD programs in the ports tree.
There are also MP3-to-PCM and PCM-to-CD programs in the ports tree.
If you ask 11 people which program is best or how to do this, you'll get 11
different answers. Open source is wonderful like that.
Here are some starting points:
