MP3/CD player

Oct 11, 2005 8:43AM PDT

Okay guys, I've searched the net lookin for a CD player with a build in usb port everywhere, but it's nowhere to be found. I could've sworn it had been thunk of already. The reason I want it is because generally, cd players are cheaper than mp3 player, and if I just bought a usb flash drive, well I could save about a hundred dollars. That would be cool if it actually hadn't been thought of already and I invented something without even knowing it, but no. Anyway, if you have ANY information on this, please give me a link or some info or SOMETHING. I already know which flash drive I'm getting. Thanks for the help

Just curious, why would you want usb on a CD player? Unless the player is a burner (not sure if they make those in this form factor) you couldn't transfer onto the player and you could just pop a disk in the CDROM to get data off.

Of course it might be cool to transfer from CD to annother MP3 player to allow extra storage while travelling, but I doubt you'll be able to find a product like this.
