All General Discussion Readers: Do you use your CD player regularly?

optiontrader · 03-22-2011, 11:52 PM

(Mods, please don't move to Audio Section - I'd like to include the preferences of those that don't frequent that section as I do).

Just as the title says - wondering how much of us regularly use the in-dash CD player. With Apple lossless, I find it a pain in the arse to lug CD's around - even with the in-dash changer. My changer remains empty like the day I bought it.

Sat radio and ipod is everything I need. If I have a CD, I immediately put it in my itunes, so it goes on the ipod anyway. I haven't used a CD on any vehicle I have owned in the last 4 years.

What's a CD?

I just bought Chris Browns new album, my first mainstream album I ever bought, and I love it so I guess yes, I do.

But I also have an iPhone and i like listen to the radio

I got my ipad strictly to use for my music and navigation system

Red__Zed · 03-23-2011, 12:06 AM

I use either my compact flash slot, or the built-in hard drive. Sometimes my iPhone.

Haven't used it once. I just use the aux input with my mp3 player.

jaedub · 03-23-2011, 01:10 AM

Aftermarket head unit & Ipod FTW!

I use to use the occasional CD in case I forgot my Ipod or something but being in Germany, I don't have any of my CDs yet and German radio isn't really top notch. So Ipod all the way. Way easier.

Only Aux port mated with my iPhone. I really want to mount an iPad and get ballin' up in there
