How do you record music to the HD when
the trunk-mounted CD-changer doesn't record music to the hard disk/drive (according to page 4-46 of the owner's manual/PDF file) ? According to another thread, you can't transfer music from your compactflash to the hard disk/drive either so what am I missing here ?
When I read the thread about the CF, I thought at least you could use the trunk-mounted CD-changer (the only option when you get the nav, there's no single-CD player in the dash) until I read this page in the owner's manual. I think I missed something, but for some reason everytime I go over the other thread, I can't find it.

Even with the Nav, the in dash CD player remains ... its just that the in dash unit is a single player (without nav you get in dash cd changer)
that's the only way to get music on the HD

Kinda dumb if you ask me ..... I mean if Infiniti is so much in bed with the RIAA, they should not allow even playback of mp3s !!!
Damn RIAA

It wants to re-encode songs to mp3 --- they just don't want you to supply the mp3 to begin with - duh- !
The music box HD is limited to a max. of 3000 tracks.

- best quality: 132 kbps
- can't record CDs with MP3 files
- trunk-mounted CD-changer (which takes alot of space/makes it difficult/impossible to load some items)
This sucks.

So far I'm pretty happy with the Music Box functionality. I picked up some Ultra-Speed CDRW media and have just been loading stuff on as I go driving!
The quality could use some work, and I'd really, really love to clone the drive over to a ~80 GB drive instead and that way I could eventually move my whole library over instead of just a third to a fourth of it.
