>>>most car radios will play CD-R discs. CD-RW is a different story. I do not know of any that do that.>>> Hope this isn't to far off subject, but I thought it might be helpful info. I just got a CD-burner for my computer and here is what I have learned, CD-RW is only for data storage, so don't bother trying to write audio files to it. CD-R works on most cd players but it depends alot on the quality of CD-R disc that you get. It also depends on what color disc you are using. There are 3 different colors, silver, gold, and blue. Try and get CD-R's that have a silver surface if you are having trouble. Also, I tried recording 12 songs on a CD-R and it played in my home stereo but not my car stereo. I then just recorded 10 songs on the next one and it played fine in both after that. It may have something to do with to many songs taking up the memory on the disc and your car stereo not being able to read it.
