No CD player in new SUV

My USB stick replaced all the worthless babbling of the DJs on Sirius/XM and the CDs. Best thing to happen to music since the CD.
All music all the time and never a Beatles song.

Is there a folder structure recommended or just put all the music on the usb without folders? I copied mine to USB but it is hard to find what I want on the menu when playing it??

There is still a good use for a CD player. Even though all my music CD's are now on my iPod. Audio books.

I buy my audio books in the second hand store bins, usually very cheap. Play them on long days' drives. Pain in the rear to copy them over to digital when you are only going to play them one time. Easier to just pop the disc in the CD slot. If there is one!

Mine is in album folders within artist folders. That is navigable by my vehicle's audio system.

Audio books are available in digital form, maybe not as cheap as second hand store bins but then a person's time is worth something.

I use audible.com via phone and listen to books when I travel and walk (which I do most every day). It's not cheap but reasonable and has all the latest books. It actually motivates me to get out and walk. :)

I download audio books and eBooks from my library's web site. For books that are in high demand, there usually is a waiting period. You will need a card for your library to download books.

That is up to you. If you have several Types of music IE FOLK ROCK, Classical, Blue Grass. you can short that way.. Or by artist, or by album or by.. Well you are the librarian so you decide how to do it.

Alas. I can't tell you how to slice and dice.. I can only tell you how I Do it

I have a choir practice folder (Yup I sing in the choir)
Church favorites
Assorted artists
Assorted albums
Assorted types (Folk, FIlk, One-offs)
and more.. Can be fun telling it to play all shuffel :)

Thank you all for solving my audio problem.:B

My old class c's radio has no bluetooth nor any plug ins. I play music using a FM transmitter. I am looking for a better mp3 player to use with a FM transmitter, mine will accept bluetooth, that has a nice menu system so i can access a particular album.
Help and suggestions, not counting "replace the radio" :-), wanted.

Anyone have a CD player that they use and like? A quick search came up empty. Chino
