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.
