Ok well upload the CD onto your computer with itunes or windows media player. Then in powerpoint click the tab that says insert (It is in the area where File/Edit/View/ etc... is located) After you click that go down to movies and sounds and select sound from file. That will bring up a browsing box and you need to find the songs you uploaded. click the one you want on the page you want it on and select OK. then it will ask if you want it to automatically play or play when you click the sound icon. Just do that on all the pages in your powerpoint!
