Default IPod integration - is it the future

I bought a neo ion iPod adapter from www.mp3yourcar.com awhile back for my car. So now my iPod takes place of the cd changer. After using it and seeing my friends show interest in it I have come to the conclusion that in a few years cd changers will be obsolete and everyone will be using iPods or other digital music players. Young people really seem to want this and for car companies to think they are still going out and buying actual cd

I came to this conclusion a couple of years ago. I'm just happy that now they are starting to release products that utilize this more.

it's not the future. it's the present.
podcasting makes it even more so.

cd's days are numbered; especially for music on the go. At home, it's a different story. i still listen to wax at home.

at first i liked the idea, bu now i'm not a fan of the itrip.

FM modulators drive me nuts. at best they sound like a good FM signal, and on road trips you constantly have to readjust the channels to get a good signal. i was really dissapointed with mine over time. i think hardwiring is the only way to go.
