I hate to bust your bubble. I record all my master musical CDs in MP3 in
RealAudio Jukebox. Then I modified the sound the way I like to
thump-thump-and thump back to CD format with a CD-R burner. Works quite well
and I still retained the master for ever. Thus, no need for MP3 CD player
is required.
However, it would be nice to get that digital radio one.

Subject: DML: Awia MP3 Player
Hey DMLers
All the computer gurus on the list might like this. I just ordered
an in dash MP3 player. This Awia at $299 is suppose to play MP3's right off
a CD-ROM. The only other one I saw was a Kenwood at $750, without a
removable face, that's just asking to be stolen. The Awia will probably be
back ordered for a while, but I'll wait. There's a link to the Awia MP3
player at the bottom.
I explain for the technically challenged. An MP3 is a music file on
the computer. It's much more compressed than normal music files on a
typical CD. The problem I've had is all the portable MP3 players I've seen
use small mini disc instead of big CD-ROMs. So what this means is I can
down load music off the web (any thing but Metallica), burn them onto a
CD-ROM and play it on my Awia in-dash CD player. I can fit about 13 HOURs
of music on one disk in MP3 format. No more music starved road trips for
me. I hope Napster stays online a bit longer.
