do you need a CD changer - most units play MP3's - on a single CDr you can get 170+ tracks

This would save you money and the hastle of fitting the changer - and for 250 notes you can get a good quality HU

Just an thought

Buy a decent HU then go and get an iPod - at least then you won't be limited to playing it in the car...

iTunes or Media Player (both free) will import your tracks from CD then burn them onto a CD as MP3.

Once you have mastered it you will not look back

Put your audio CD into your PC - and it will attomatically copy it on to your hard disk in MP3 format - including the track name and even the artwork

Just think - Your entire CD collection on youur PC with instant access and searching capabilities
