I was looking at the Sony Portable DVD Player, and I am thinking about getting it to play my mp3 from a recorded DVD. Only 5.5 hours to battery time, but most of the time I would have access to a power outlet anyway.
We think we can get over 1500 songs on a disk by recording MP3's to a DVD -R instead of a CD -R that will hold only about 200 songs in the MP3 format. Most, (if not all) DVD or CD players that play MP3's will not play them if they are recorded or copied onto a DVD -R. Am I correct on this? You are limited to copying your MP3's to a CD -R ( -R is my preference all the way around as I do not use +R or Rewritables). Again, somebody please clear this up for me. I wish any player that is capable of playing MP3's would play them from a DVD -R disk they are on.
Chuck
