School me up on MP3
Howdy-
Pretty computer and electronics savvy, but haven't ventured to the audio realm of things for quite some time. As I understand it, you can put a whole lot more music on a single CD when using mp3. So I assume you need an mp3 deck in your car to play them (duh). So would this get rid of the need for a disc changer in the car? How is the audio quality, does the deck access the music as fast track to track, what's the best ripper for getting them onto a disc from your PC..? Tell me anything and everything... Your comments are appreciated! -BG

I have recently ripped my entire CD collection at the highest bit rate setting and the entire thing is 22 Gb for 4039 songs or 11 days of music. I can fit roughly 10 hours of MP3 songs on one 800Mb CD-R. Quality is good to very good mostly marred by occasional dropouts on about 1 out of 30 songs.
Yes, you would need an MP3 compatible deck to play the MP3 CD-R or do what a number of folks are doing and get an iPOD, plug it into your existing deck and be able to carry your entire collection around with you.
