MP3 copy to HDD

kdochert · 09-23-2010, 12:07 PM

Ripping CD's to the HDD seems straighforward, however I've already gone through the tedious process of ripping all my CD's to my PC, so my first question is, does anybody know a way of copying these MP3 files to the HDD to avoid going through this ripping process again?

In the mean time I've just copied my MP3's to a USB stick and have that permenantly plugged in to the USB port, my question on this is why do the folders appear to be in random order on the 370z console screen? Is there a way to display them in alphabetical order?

All help appreciated!

On your z hdd? No you have to use your cd's and rip them.

I think alphabetical order has something to do with the titles and artist names if they are not all there or some are missing it can screw up the way they apear. Or it could just look into each folder at a time and display the contents.

ripping the cd's to the HD is so much of a pain in the *** that its not worth it. buy an ipod classic, even with a broken screen or poor battery life. Load your music onto it and use that as your music source for your car.

Yep, even with aftermarket head units they do it better also I use ipods with broken screens all the time work way better than just loading up music.

and they make a good projectile weapon if need be. the police would never believe you threw an ipod at someone.

the new iPod Shuriken, sounds feasible. more useful than an ipad

Those new nano's you probably could use them as a Shuriken.

You can just buy 16g CF and leave it in the slot like I do.
