let me know if you can burn wma files to DVD and play them back. would be a cheaper alternative than to get a USB kit from VAIS.

It works on my car. I just burnt an MP3 DVD using Toast burner (on mac) and everything went fine. I used a normal DVD. Also, i was able to put them in folders and add graphics if i wish

Toast is capable of converting MP3s to DVD Audio format. I have done that to some of my music and it works great with the limitation of the controls being locked out while the car is in motion. Those of you who have the override may not have that problem.

So I'm what I'm getting from this discussion is that you cannot store mp3's on a dvd, they must be converted to DVD audio format which means you may get about 100 songs on a dvd. That's about as much as you get by storing mp3's on a CD. But Al-Taweel says the songs are in folders which implies an mp3 data format. Confusing.
I'm trying to decide if the Vais tech USB player is worth it. Seems you can store about 600 songs on the 6 CD's. VAIS/USB can store thousands and also have playlists and an IPOD interface. MP3's on 6 DVDs would do the trick, but no playlists. I installed the vaistech multimedialinq usb player for evaluation. What I don't like about it is that if you want playlists, all songs you want to hear must be in a playlist, it just won't see the other songs not in playlists. I spoke to Eugene of vais and he says "playlists are the customers responsiblity". Kinda sucks having to put every song into a playlist, especially if there are thousands. If you have no playlists, then all songs can be seen/played. All or nothing. Fortunately, I'm an engineer and I wrote a script to automatically find the files and put it in playlists.

if you are just doing ipod, you don't need the vml right? you can just get the sl2i-up which is quite a bit cheaper than the vml. and on mine, i don't have playlist and i never use playlist. i always only do either artists or albums, which then i will be able to see everything and select what i want, if i want

I've never heard a difference in a high bit rate encoded mp3 and an audio cd, although I'm not an expert, and I'm sure other people have a better ear than me. Besides, I buy all my music through an mp3 store online.
