MusicBox, will it rip from a CD-R with MP3s?
I know this is a stupid question and I almost certainly think the answer is no, but if I burn a CD with MP3s and stick it in the in-dash, will it rip the mp3s into the music box?
Like I said, I think I recall reading that it has to be a true CD with WAVs.
I have a 120 minute mix I want to get into music box but have no way of getting it in there because a CD can only do a max of 80 minutes.

Looks like I found the answer.

It has to be burned as an actual CD.

being nitpicky here, but when you burn mp3 files to a CD, and "rip" them off, you're not technically ripping, but rather copying the files.
Ripping technically refers to the process of copying audio/video from a media format to a format storable on a storage device. Since the CD with files burned to it is really technically data storage device and not a regular audio media, it's not really ripping.
so the real answer is, yes you can rip MP3s burned to CD-R audio discs, but you cannot copy mp3 files from a CD-R data disk to the music box.

The reason I said ripping was I was under the assumption the Musicbox didn't use MP3 format it used some other compression in some unique file system. I guess I thought it'd have to RIP the mp3s from a PC file system, convert them into whatever it accepts, and then park them on it's proprietary file system.
Regardless, not the right forum for this discussion. I could be wrong about the car not using XFS, EXT2/3, or FAT or about it not using MP3s but frankly I don't really care. Taking the HDD out of this car is not a viable option anyhow.
