I know, unfortunately I have stacks of old tapes which I have not replaced with CD's and my only possibility to listen to these would be the car.

...my father had actually (very recently) considered starting a business, with a service as such (LP's or tapes or VHS/BetaMax -> digital media)... it's been done in the 'States, so i've heard, and is supposedly pretty successful.

maybe you need to head to the bank and get a small business loan

And consent from all the artists so you can copy their music...

Just d/l all the MP3's and burn them?

If you got a CD writer + something like a soundblaster and a tape deck with a line out you have all you need , software either already installed or easily findable.

Tape Option

In America and Japan, there are multiple options.

The audio head unit supports two components in two different bays.

The top bay (top of the laquered circle) takes either, a single cd player, the (UK Default) 6 cd player, and a CD/MP3 player.

The second bay (bottom of the laquered circle) will house either a standard tape unit or a Mini Disc Player.

Each option comes with a replacement laquer panel.

If you have the MP3 or Mini Disc unit the system is capable of displaying the ID3 tag (Song Name) of the currently selected track on the dashboard readout.

Don't know if all these will be available here though.

Any idea if it does CD-text?

Sorry Rob, not sure!

Yukki took some photos of his dash showing the titles on the 'Asian Forum' i think.

Have a look there there may be more info than my post Friday lunch brain has remembered.
