From the OP: OK, you guys have convinced me. I'm putting my CDs on a thumb drive. I have hundreds of CD's, so this will keep me busy for a while.

Thanks for the good advice.

Don't get me wrong, CDs DO sound better over all since they have a sampling rate greater than the average MP3. However, honestly with the Ford Factory stock stereos not even CDs quality can help the poor sound quality.

Ford chose to severely crush and cut off the bass with their stereos, it is the reason I typically replace the OEM radios with aftermarket.. But, I hit a brick wall when I started looking at the expense and time involved in replacing the OEM unit and a bit irritated that they put the outside temperature readout on the radio display instead of with the drivers panel making one more item that doesn't work with aftermarket radios..

Radios die and I guess down the road when the OEM radio fails, I will just hookup a simple aftermarket stereo under the dash and call it a day.. Replacement OEMs will cost more than the vehicle is worth..
