USB Car Kit – Another option for listening to your music on the move
I’m sure you’re all aware that music can be played just about where ever you want these days, as new versions of MP3 playing hardware are released almost monthly the choices for playing your music are endless. The Market leader (Apple iPod) are released twice a year if not more often and competitor’s release they’re new versions around the same time, however is this really the best method of listening to music while your on the move?
Granted the main advantage of having an MP3 music player is that you are able to listen to music where ever you want providing your battery is fully charged, after all this the main reason they were designed. However a lot of MP3 devices are not compatible with various other systems, if we wanted to integrate them (iPod being the main exception). So what other ways of listening do we have available?
Well a fairly new trend in car audio is to listen to music via a USB stick, new USB car kits connect in to the CD Changer output on the back of your factory fitted radio. This allows the connection of a USB stick (up to 16GB) to be played through your car speakers, which can be controlled from your steering wheel controls (if you have them). This method is much cheaper than other integrated devices and USB sticks can be purchased for around £10 that can hold as much music as the new iPod touch; however the only downside is you can’t listen to the audio when away from car or computer. But if you want a cheaper way to listen to the music you love on the move this has got to be one of the best options.

AddACDChanger is evolving!
Add A CD Changer has evolved! CD Changers are being used less and less as digital technology continues to evolve. Add A CD Changer has begun to evolve with this technology and is now able to offer a new product to take us into 2009 and beyond!
We are very excited to announce that we have set the bench-mark for design and have developed a USB input kit for your factory fitted stereo in your car! This is available on most vehicles including Audi, VW, Skoda, Seat, Renault, Toyota and more and will convert your CD Changer input to USB, allowing your stereo to be a USB stereo.
Using USB is very useful for many reasons, the main one being that you can slot upto 16gb of MP3 music storage into your car stereo via this kit!
Prices are competitive and work out at half the price of a CD Changer itself!
The kits also work with a 3.5mm input and can take SD and MMC cards!
