ive really got to sort out the cds in my car, i have loads of them, is there a cd out now that can store 60 odd tunes on it?

i have a pioneer cd player about 6 years old, or is there anything else i can plug up to it?

im clueless about this stuff!

 

Get a headunit that plays MP3s and you can put a couple of MP3 albums on one normal disk mate.

 

how many mp3's can fit on one disk them mate?

do you burn them onto cd the normal way then?

 

You can get a few on but obviously it varies depending on size of the files you burn on. As an example I have just put Clubland 14 (3 disk) and Clubland Clasix (3 disk) all on one normal 700MB/80min disk.

I burn using Nero

 

MP3 sizes.. typically 5MB/tune @ 128 kbit quality (tolerable).. so approx 130 tunes on a single CD in mp3 format..

You burn mp3's as a 'data disc', not audio disc.

 

or if you get a head unit that can read DVD's burn mp3's onto a DVD and you can get 1000+ songs onto one disc

or try a head unit with a USB input, then you can buy a memory stick (8GB) for a tenner

 

Or move into the 20th century and get an mp3 player

 

Ive got a 700mb CD in the car now that has 14 albums on it. If your using nero you can select to burn an MP3 CD. Just plonk the different folders with the songs in onto the disc, then if your head unit reads MP3's it will work fine.

 

mp3 players with a memory stick is the way forward...

 

I reckon so too, especially seeing as there not that expensive now, plus you can get ones that you can attach your ipods/mobile phones to, therefor having even more of a selection just by pressing a few buttons

 

ok thanks guys, i like the idea on a mp3 player with a usb port, can anyone pint me in the right direction on what cheapish one will be good for me, will have about bout 120 tunes!

 

Go to your music file on your computer, right click the folder and choose properties. That will tell you how much space the files are taking up. Then have a look on ebay! I have got a 4gb ipod nano, and that holds approx 700-1000 songs, so a cheapy 1gb mp3 player should be more than enough for you!
