MP3s to Go
The biggest downfall of burning CDs on your computer is that you are often limited to listening to them on your computer. Most home (and car) CD players won't play MP3 and WMF tunes. That problem has apparently been resolved by German car audio company Blaupunkt, which is now producing an in-dash CD player that can handle both store-bought CDs and those you've made from culling online resources. According to Forbes.com , the gadget is called the San Jose MP41 and, while it will play typical audio CDs, it will also play computer-based digital music files. In addition, it has a built-in AM/FM tuner, with presets for 12 FM and six AM stations. Blaupunkt will be selling the San Jose MP41 for about $400 and you should see it hit the stores sometime next month.
