Car Audio Question.
#1
Well I guess it could be considered a computer type question as well. I need to pick up a new head unit for the RX7. I want one where I can dump like 300 audio files from my computer (MP3's?) onto ONE disc.
I've found different things though in looking for something that can handle that. Some players say that they handle mp3 format and can do that, yet others say that WMA is what you need to be able to do that. What is the difference?
CD/MP3/WMA Receiver
CD/MP3 Receiver
PS--I want something that is XM ready.

MP3 is one format
WMA is another
if you tip your own tracks from cds, then you can do either, if
your downloading them they are MP3 and you would have to
convert them to WMA.
in lab results I believe WMA are cleaner, to the human ear
a MP3 encoded on 128 and up sounds as good as a CD.
In the car you wouldnt be able to hear the difference anyhow

So basically if I burn them in MP3 format for the car I should be ok?
And yes, I'm aware about the extra stuff needed for XM. Thanks though.
Oh, and thanks for the help.
