Playing MP3 Tunes via CD

My AT Sedan has the Bose system. Will this read MP3s on a CD-R? If not, anyone know of a solution (software upgrade, etc.). Most of the aftermarket units, even cheap ones, allow for this now.

no it will not. Some people have wired in an Ipod or phatbox to play mp3s.

I believe there is a software program to convert MP3s to wmz files. The wmz files play fine on my bose system on CD-Rs discs.

I am referring to the "wave audio files". The program is supposed to convert MP3 to wave, which play on the Bose system.

Or you can buy an ipod and use the tape adapter for a couple months, and get the new coaxial Auxiallary adapter coming out soon. For the money youd spend on a MP3 Head unit and double din you could get a brand new ipod that can hold way more than an MP3 cd.

i've heard that the average battery life on the ipod is roughly 1.5 to 2 years afterwhich you have to shell out something like 200 bucks to have the battery replaced, that's pretty lame considering the thing costs so much. do some searches, granted the ipod is the most popular player there are some hidden costs that don't show up for a while.

Formerly true. Now Apple has instituted a $99 battery replacement program due to consumer pressure.
