OK, here's the deal...my friend recorded me 2 CD's, which I can "only" play on my computer? How/What is the difference as far as the "recordings" go? I know I sound like a "blonde" (no offense intended). I'm just a little lost, as I tried to play this CD in my truck...what gives?

Also, the sound quality...really sucks. LOL! However, I know this because I only have one speaker for my PC...and I should really know the answer to my question? Hmmmm...but I don't!

Thank-you e1 for your answers. I still don't get it? Now, I know the capabilities of my PC...I'm just not understanding the difference between that and my CD player in my truck/stereo? Is it my understanding that they record music deferently? I'm sorry for my lack of this!

I have a 2003 "Frontier", in which the stereo system was already installed?

It sounds like your CD player is one that doesn't recognise the CD-R format (not CD-ROM). This means Recordable CD. The older players are guilty of this, because CD-R's had not been invented or perfected when the player was manufactured. Also, for awhile after they were able to play the CD-R, they couldn't handle the CD-RW (which means CD ReWrite - ones you could record on and then record over top several times - like tape). Next time you buy a CD player, get a multi-purpose one - and don't forget to include the MP3 format. Computers can, with the right software and recording CD deck, make MP3 CD's. They hold about 200 songs.

Some CD players don't recognize cd roms. They do make music CD Roms, but they don't always work either.

Buy a 10 - pack of MUSIC cd roms and have the friend record them again. Of course, if it doesn't work, you could have just bought the CD.

if your friend recorded the CD as mp3 files instead of burning it like an actual CD in order to fit more songs on there, then your car most likely doesnt play it. unless your car's stereo system specifies that it can play mp3 FILES then its the same as trying to play a computer game through your car stereo
