> The Aiwa CDC-MP3 plays CD-R's AND CD-RW's AND instead > of burning the CD to be read in a stereo, you can just burn > MP3 files to it and it will read them off! Its about $300 > http://www.aiwa.com/Catalog00/Products2.asp?id=94 AND it has a front external input jack! I could plug in a tape player IF I wanted to, or my minidisc.... Definitely got to have an external input, even if it doesn't play MP3s.
