Wolf, wouldn't it be much easier just to put a CD in the CD player in the car.
That will soon not be an option.  Already, most modern vehicles don't have CD players.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Yup, last bought a new vehicle in 2019 . The salesman looked at me like I had 22 heads when I asked if it had a cd player.  I would guess anyone buying a new car from this point on will have no chance at cd's.

Yeah pretty sure my car has Bluetooth.  I'll have a look tomorrow.  If you don't see me online for a couple of days you'll know why.

Holy shit!  I got this to work!  :eek

Realised today I already have an account so will be getting the premium I guess.  Can't believe it works, my mind is blown.  I can play any album at anytime in my car, I know you will all laugh but this is outrageous to me!
:lol


I had that same feeling when I first got an mp3 player some 20 years back and thought Holy Shit, I can listen to anything from my entire library on the go.

Same, when I was in high school. A glorious moment.

I remember listening to cassettes and knowing the exact moment when to press the button and flip sides.  But I think the Wolfster needs to just stick with cd's.

I actually had an awesome car stereo with a cassette deck that I could FF and it would stop at the gap between songs. I could skip songs!

My previous car also had a cassette deck that I occasionally used.  I am in no way ready to give up the CD player in my current one.  Has to be something on that market that still has them.

Yeah I remember those players, some would be able to sense the gap between tracks and stop FF and play the next track. It was the "smart" version of next track. Though if you had an album with no gaps then it wouldn't work. I think Seasons In the Abyss was like that.

I used to work with a guy who said in the early myspace days, when he went on dates, he would go to the pages of the girls to see what bands they liked and then act like he was a fan of them on the dates. :lol :lol

I have a 2014 Lancer VRX, fully equipped for CD's.   :metal

it has around 285 000 km on it so will probably have to look at a new one the next couple of years.

How do you listen to music in the car then Jason?
