  1. I've solved this. A colleague helpfully explained that the "MP3" logo on the Sony head unit means that it can play MP3 CDs, as well as accepting an MP3 device connection (the original reason for my posting). So I have spent a weekend having fun with iTunes and I've mastered my first MP3 CD-RW, with nearly 10 hours of music - even better than my old-fashioned 6-CD changer. Marvellous.
  2. Hello, Has anyone any advice or experience of the following please. I have just bought a 1-year old Galaxy (Dec 59 plate) that has a Sony single CD/DAB with MP3 and blue teeth. In the glove box there is an aux jack socket, but no USB socket. I have a huge collection of CDs and my previous two cars have both had CD changers in the boot, so this is where I am starting from - the ability to choose and play from 6 CDs' worth of music, rather than one-at-a-time and the associated butter fingers aggro whilst driving. So I would like to do either of the following, this is where it might get tricky I think: 1 Buy an iPod, and then control it from the existing dash unit (I think I need the USB socket for this and one of those "Y" cables?) 2 Fit a multi-CD changer, and then control it from the existing dash unit I realise that I will need to fork out some cash to get to where I want; either my first ever iPod/MP3 player and a retro-fit USB socket, or an underseat/in-the-boot CD changer, or replace the current single CD/DAB with it's 6CD sibling. And I'd be happy to forfeit both the existing DAB and blue teeth capabilities if that would help. Sorry for the long posting (it's my first), but I'm trying to anticipate questions and describe my current and wished-for situations fully in the hope that I can't be the only one to have wanted to do this. The car is brill by the way, but I feel it's taken me a step backwards in ICE. Any comments/advice/opinions/successful experiences? The Ford salesman couldn't advise. Thank-you all very much
