[DeTomaso] CD Players- What works in a Pantera?

[Sean Korb]

It's weird, I haven't used a CD in a long time, but I've lost a couple
of 200GB SD cards recently.  Pandora and mp3s just sort of took over
for me and I'm not really clear when that happened.

You raise a really important point though, if you use CDs they are
moving parts and their position is very important.

My '78 BMW R100 has an 8 track player to Krako casset adapter to CD
player cable to my 2003 vintage MP3 player but I think I'll be
replacing the MP3 player with a bluetooth adapter.

I'm not ready to abandon old technology, I just don't really want to
use it properly :)
