Also if the radio can play mp3 discs, some have a limit on the max bitrate they can handle. All of them can handle 128k, but some cant do 256k, and it's hard to find one that can play ogg and/or flac (just ask Hans).

You also need to look at your radio and it's capabilities.
 
If it's an older model, it probably just plays Music CD's (they you have to burn in the Music CD format)
 
If it's a newer model and even possibly has a usb connector, then you can probably burn a data cd with all your songs (Lots more than a mucis CD)
 
You still have to read the docs on the radio, sometimes there is a limit to how many file in a directory, and the filename size.
 
Hope this helps.

Hi Mike,
       As for the hardware, the drive itself, just about any will work, but
definitely READ THE BOX that it comes in! Some of the newer CD/DVD
drives come with a security feature built into them that limits how you
can burn disks. I've never bought one personally to try it out because
the mere mention of any sort of built-in DRM security scares me off, and
they have a bunch of them on sale at the Phoenix FRY's Electronics right
now. I've had good luck with all the ones I bought from Geeks.com and
Newegg.com, (usually LG brand).

Stu,

Can you give any more info about what to look for on the box or any specific make/models that have that "feature"?
