I use CDex, very easy to use. You can get it on download.com

I may have found a more "painless" way to do this. Was surfing the Sony site and discovered that they are about to introduce a 10 disc CD/MP3 changer that is FM modulated with wireless remote. I currently run a similar setup but it is only a CD changer. This has served me well in all the cars I've owned. I can simply keep the existing disc cartridges and just add MP3 discs to it.

One thing though is that MP3 quality is noticibly much worse than cd. I stopped listening to MP3 in my car because of it.

Just download roxio easy cd creator 6 or 5 version directly from limewire and install it in your desktop. The program itself will automatically convert the mp3 format into the cd when you burn them. Make sure you select 'any type' before hitting the search button

Windows Media Player will copy mp3 to cd and it sounds great.

The sound quality depends greatly on the bit rate that the song was ripped at....some will sound just fine, others aren't worth listening to.

I'm really hoping this is the case. I have Windows Media Player 9 and I will try to do this soon. If it doesnt' work, I'll leave the tunes as MP3s and buy myself the MP3 changer.
You guys have been great!
