Just curious if anyone is getting close to the 9GB, 500 album, or 3,000 song limit on their music box?

I've been burning a lot of music to the MB but I've only had my car a couple of weeks so I've barely made a dent.

Also, most of you probably already know this but today I found the "Delete within the Delete Menu" that actually removes the deleted tracks from the Music Box storage. So if you've ever deleted a song or album it's still there and this is what really does the permanent delete and frees up the space.

 

Can you manually download songs to the musicbox, or does it have to be the entire disc?

 

I don't believe there is a way to burn only certain songs to the Hard Disk. If I only want the first few songs from a CD I've stopped it at that point and those tracks have copied fine. Other then that it's all or nothing unless you wait for the copying to finish and then go edit -> delete tracks.

 

Getting close to having it full but I have pretty much every CD we own on there. I figure there are quite a few that I don't listen to much so if I need to clear some space they can go.

 

I'm just about full - but don't have any more discs to put on. I mostly just use the CF card.

 

I've loaded about 150 songs on the MB, but since most of those came from iTunes, the gracenotes don't carry over and it's a pain to manually input them. There's tons of room left, but I may just start using the iPod instead in the aux input.

 

There is a way you can have iTunes add the CD text automatically. It's an option you need to set in iTunes. It's something like Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Burning > Select "Include CD Text" > OK
I'm using it and it works great.

 

I saw this posted somewhere the other day and used it this weekend to load a bunch of new cd's onto the MB, it is really easy to use and you don't have to do one album at a time. You can burn a bunch of cds to the MB and then run this utility and it will get all the track info for the cds/songs....
