Actually the carousel IS getting pretty long in the tooth, and the hangar is a dusty environment. I'm getting lots of skipping, even on discs that are fin in other players. I like the solid state-ness of the USB drive.
My car unit streams bluetooth... dust free but not very HIFI, but then I'm listening to podcast of lectures and don't know if all the noise is the source material or the BT.

They make some pretty good hard drive media players now... let me check.

I'm back... kinda complicated... (I have been looking into loading all my CD's onto a hard drive to play through my home theater), you can get a external media player/hard drive but you would need some kind of monitor to look at the menus... a simpler solution might be a beefy MP3 or iPod and plug that into the AUX of the amp (or most have a audio/video port on the front now)... depends on how much you want to spend, how much music you want to store, and how HIFI you want to go... kinda sounds like our cars doesn't it?
