Re: Found it! - MP3 hardware add-on

[Keith Doxey <keith.doxey@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Paul,

conversion from MP3 backto wav is easy and I have done it but a wav file is
approx 10 times the size of an MP3 so maximum 20 (ish) songs still exists.

Keith,

presumably you have (like me) a single-disk CD player in the car? - hence
the desire for greater capacity..

But, couldn't you just burn a CD-R (not an RW as most in-car players wont
read them, apparently), with MP3's (converted back to WAV's and written in
red-book format of course).

I have seen numerous reports that this is perfectly feasable, and any
decent
CD-writing software can do it (Adaptec EZ-SCSI seems well regarded in this
respect).

I haven't tried it myself (yet), but I'm going to in the next few days
(weeks?) - the process is outlined on mp3.com, and seems straight-forward
enough. Then - CD's for the car, with 200-odd tracks on, in the same
quality
as MP3....

Regards.

Paul G.
