I prefer music on a CD. My car (2020 model) doesn't have a CD player in it. Most of the newer laptops don't have a CD player. From 1982 to 1999, over 200 billion CDs have been sold. Bring back the CD player in cars.

[@CalledHigher-ib8ce]

Maybe if the car manufacturers get enough complaints,they might.

[@beezanteeum]

Thank you, Apple, to render optical discs (CD, DVD, Bluray), memory card, and Headphone/Auxillary Jack irrelevant

[@JohnEZang]

It’s crazy to me. Now I’m an older millennial but nothing beats the sound of a CD. Yes it’s not as convenient but it also encourages you to actually listen to an album instead of rifling through a gazillion songs without ever really listening to anything. My cd collection is dear to me as it sort of chronicles my development of listening and tastes through the years. Like a good book collection. I’ve a feeling the kids are going to begin collecting them before long and the price will go up.

[@cityofabscissae]

@@JohnEZang, my sentiments exactly! You and I think alike!

[@Ohquesarah]

Right! Like what are they expecting people to do with all the cds? Put it in a landfill?! I refuse! Bring CDs back!

[@rodcoulter997]

Totally sucks that OEM car companies don’t offer a CD player, even as an option. You hear us Nissan, Toyota, KIA, Mazda, GM, Ford, Porsche...?

[@beezanteeum]

Land Cruiser 300 (not the Lexus LX 600) still has DVD player Alphard still has DVD Player Audi still offers DVD player as "custom-to-order" option BMW still has DVD and rear Blu-Ray drive as "custom-to-order" options (even though BMW removes VCD and SVCD support since iDrive 6--the feature that makes BMW standing out against competitor: Mercedes/Daimler Group and Volkswagen Group cars lacks VCD and SVCD support on their vehicle stereo)

[@nitro5247]

Volkswagen too!

[@billdang3953]

Agree with you 1,000 percent. What's the point of disenfranchising those who want to play the music of their choice on a vehicle trip just to save a few dollars in manufacturing costs by deleting the disc drive?

[@NightWarriorAlive]

It's all about the REVENUE STREAMS. Companies don't want you to OWN your music, they want you to RENT it. But homie don't play that!

[@Silversnake-x1h]

It’s not a few bucks it’s more like thousands. CD players are consumption of space and which require more into engineering and design to put dated technology that needs more down steps in order to try to “integrate” and keep up with modern cars. Physical media needs physical hardware upgrades and maintenance. Compression and audio quality of cds can’t be compared to what output digital can (alac, lossless, Dolby Atmos) There’s so much more negative environmental impact in producing and disposing cds & players. If those who are begging for a cd player in there new car are a more niche segment and demographic, then it’s really fair to say that you’re willing to pay more for what you want even if it goes up in the hundreds towards your sticker price. Just like any add on to a vehicle that the few really want and will pay for it. If I want a CF wing then I don’t have a choice but to buy it. Have your CDs burned into a usb drive- it is more convenient and allows for better hands free song selection. There are plenty of used vehicles that have cd slots but to ask for the perks of a newer car with previous generation and really unreliable system added in is solely on the more niche demographic demand to supply.

[@sueishere25]

Thank you. Our vehicles still have CD players, our youngest 2018 Toyota. It almost broke my heart when I found out they weren't adding them to the newer vehicles. I also like the ease of your unit, I only take one CD, no need for multiplayer.

[@lonesoul663]

I want my CD player for audio books... Can I use for that and it would it remember where I stopped listening? I have a new 2020 Hyundai Tucson with no CD player. Hope you can help.

[@j.j.freeman9292]

I was wondering the same thing. Perusing through many of the questions about specific makes/models of new vehicles while quick scrolling through the comments below, I am bummed out as many of you are. With the advent of adding USB powered external devices being made and designed for PC's and other smart devices, I would have thought that having an easier option to have an external CD player for newer model vehicles would be a strong sell point without having to settle on just what is factory equipped. A very cool and dear friend of mine, who is a recently retired IT professional has an incredible audiophile library collection of CD's which cannot be played with the standalone external unit such as the one you are demonstrating here in his new 2021 Chevy Equinox. Every other smart device - his iPhone, etc can, no problems - - but no CD's. I even burned a CD specifically to break in the sound system factory equipped using an external ODD & HDD Device (CD burner, player and DVD/Blue Ray player). I use it frequently with my laptop and naturally one has to have installed software to bridge the two hardware devices together. The CD's burned work on every CD player known to man - cheap to expensive - but alas - not for the device demonstrated here with new vehicle he has. Anyway, thanks for the informative and educational tutorial to demonstrate how this can be done as an option for some makes/models. Well done!

[@jermaineellerbe6168]

I purchased one for my BMW X5 and it sits in the arm console. The CD player works well and it was a great investment for my musical enjoyment especially when Sirus will expire in a year after free subscription.

[@4cats2008]

Just bought 2 new cars (2023's) and neither has CD player so I need at least 1 external player for when Sirius trial expires. I only listen to AM news, classical & 60's rock, I sorely miss my 2005 Suzuki Aerio 6-cd changer built into the dash. Got spoiled but rust took my baby out last month. New cars are great but what a slap to cd music lovers with huge collections! I truly believe car mfr's were paid off..... to force us to buy music! I refuse to comply & have hundreds of cd's already paid for & many are one of a kind from performances (church/college performances) that aren't online for purchase. Bummed boomer here..

[@bartlebyscrivener2980]

I'm pretty sure that is what's happening. Sirius or a consortium of music streamers are paying carmakers probably 100s of $ per new car to not only make the music system streaming, but also very specifically to NOT include cd players. And to make it hard for car owners to add them aftermarket. Streaming services are hellbent on eliminating cds, and this is one of their valuable strategies for doing so.

No, you had to manually open the lid of the walkman to change cds. This device is slot loading. Just like a built in cd player, hit eject, load the next disc.

It would play track 1, then repeat track 1 but call it track 2, then skip track 2, then play track 3 & maybe 4 before skipping another track. By the time it finished, it would tell you a 24-track CD had only a dozen tracks. Did this consistently with over a dozen, store-bought CDs. What is wrong here? Any help would be appreciated.
