Just from my own experience. I have an old car with a very old sound
system. It doesn't have a CD player, but it can play cassettes.
I bought a portable MD-recorder a couple of months ago (a Sony
MZ-G750). Very nice little player with FM-radio. Then I got the Sony
CPA-9C Car connection pack. With this little investment I can now use
my MD-player in the car and even in my boombox in the bedroom which
can play cassettes too.
There is a disadvantage to using the Cassette Adapter: it is a little
bit noisy due to the fact that the adapter runs continuously in the
player.
BTW, in the Netherlands the Cassette Adapter can be bought seperately
from the other gadget for portable MD-players: a power plug for the
cigarette lighter. I didn't get one because I thought the power plug
was much too expensive.
Off-topic: I have had to laught with the discussion about titling.
Having grown up in the vinyl and cassette era, I don't bother with
titling at all. Writing down the titles on labels is more useful to
me. I never look at the player when it's playing anyway. I also own a
Sony MD-DX3 combo which reads CD-Text. Very interesting, but I have
only one CD with Text anyway. But at least the deck will copy titles
to MD. But I don't miss the titles at all. Maybe my standard is too
low, but I never heard anyone complain in the pre-CD era that the
couldn't see which track was playing with an LP. We just looked at
the album cover.
