Getting music in new car no cd

[path1]

Where do I get the music from if no CD player in new car.

Once i get music play tunes in what? Then how does music comes out of car speakers?



(Shame I have to retire my 8 track)

The easiest way is to move all your CDs to a USB drive using a built-in media program or something like Nero. The new radio should allow you to play random tracks from your entire collection. Sony's random number generator seems to favor Barbra Streisand.

IF.....you already have a large collection of CD's, the best option might be to "upgrade" the in-dash radio head to one that DOES have a CD player.

BUT....do a really good inspection and if this really is a "new" car, ask the dealer first. A couple of my recent new cars did have a single CD player built-in but it was really not obvious unless you looked real close.

No CD? I know we have progressed over the years but did not think we had reached the point of no CD's. My 2018 Chevy 2500 has a CD and numerous USB ports. All my CD's are on it.

year and model of your new vehicle please?

Never mind. Saw your second post.

Many options. In another forum I think you ask if there was a plug in CD player (yes but I do not know if they will work with your system) (There may be an alternative way to make some of 'em work with your system I just thought of.. If the radio also has an AUX in some of the USB players have line out).

Rip the CD to a Memory Stick as MP3
Rip it to your phone as MP3
Plug the Device in via USB and it should play.

Now explain to an 8 track person how to do all that!

Figured you were from the 8 track era. Me too, but I’ve moved on, ditching it and my Kiss Alive tape.

You have a choice with new cars. Most I’ve seen have a USB port. You can purchase a tiny USB key that will hold every single cd you’ve ever owned.

You can also stream audio from your phone. The vehicle will undoubtedly have blue tooth that you can use to “attach” your phone with.
