I had earlier posted that the C.D., according to the manual (assuming I understand it correctly) states that the player only accepts one C.D. at a time, however you can upload 10 in storage. (pg. 104).

After hunting around in the manual for awhile, I found on page. 113/114 that by hitting the source button you access a screen that includes a touch screen for Upload and item 6 on page 114 kind of tells you how to do it.
Anyway, my touch screen buttons end at track list on the right side of the screen and don't so don't include Browse or Upload.?

Not sure the solution, so unless someone else on the forum has an R with this screen to compare with, I'll be calling the dealer tomorrow. Either I'm doing something wrong, or I've got a different audio system? Wonder if its not the upgraded radio that I was supposed to have.

 

My sales associate at the dealer called me today (Sunday) to ask if I had any questions.. very nice service.
He explained how to access this feature, which I will get into tomorrow.. if anyone else has issues with the C.D. upload, let me know and I'll cover it.

It has a 10GB storage device on it that you can 'load' (read: Copy) into the HD. You can then browse for these CDs under the MyMusic tab.


Catch is, you can only load CDs that are formatted in .WMA (read: NOT-MP3). So if you are one of the eight people in the US who still buys CDs and want to copy that Nat King Cole Christmas album... you're in luck...


...if like the rest of us you use MP3 format to copy things... you're SOL.

 

Right, but you could use a memory stick to hold your MP3 files if you wanted. The CD function is just an extra for those that want it. I actually still do get CDs from time to time, I must have over a thousand at this point, so it's nice to have this as an option. With that said, for car use I'm less bothered about the ultimate audio quality of the source and find that the iPod/bluetooth audio and Spotify/Rdio etc work just great.
