You could buy a DVD player that has MP3 support... !

And will do a good job of CD replay, if it has twin lasers.

Here's an interesting thought - can they play mp3s off DVD-R?


'Fraid not (AFAIK)....;-)


You could get
your whole collection on a single disc!


What? They got 40.1 Gb capacity discs now???

Um, why not? Technically, there's no reason why they couldn't do that
(not saying that they can, just speculating).

Well now, that kinda depends on your bit rate, don't it?

Well, you can from your PC but I'm not aware of any 'player' that can do it.

40 gig is 40 gig regardless of the bitrate!

No it's not, dipstick. MP3 is a codec algorithm which can be used at
many bitrates. 40GB at 192kbits/sec is 27GB at 128 kbits/sec, and so
on.
