My new car stereo has a variety of inputs including CD, AM/FM radio,
Sirius, Spotify, Pandora, Bluetooth, USB and a 2.5mm audio jack. My goal when buying the stereo was a better FM
radio experience. I hate
commercials. Now my goal is to play MP3
files.
A USB stick would work but it is in linear order from start to finish
one at a time. A cheap MP3 was better
but was still seriously lacking in user-friendly controls. It was impressive to have 64GB on a $40
device,
The stereo was clearly designed to work with Apple univers in the
iPhone, iPad and iPod domains. I broke
down and bought my first Apple product yesterday. $pendy and attractive. I am copying my MP3 files over and will give
it a try in the car later this week. I
hope it works out so that I get the music playing experience I am seeking—constant
sequential music with little need to do more than skip songs I am not in the
mood for.
Getting my files transferred over called for installing an iTunes program
on my PC and getting the iPod sync’ed to my PC along with some help from
Google.
I am grateful for sophisticated tech devices, being able to afford said
devices, and the tech literacy to make them work with a small amount of time
and effort.
