A regular (audio) cd can be played on any cd player, but an MP3 cd can not. An MP3 cd contains up to a few hundreds MP3 songs just like your hard drive inside your computer does. In order to play an MP3 cd, you'll need a cd/dvd player that can read MP3 disks, and since your car can play MP3 cds, then enjoy!

An MP3 CD is basically a CD-ROM with MP3s on it.
A regular CD only holds about 75 minutes of music. An MP3 CD can hold up to 16 hours of music. There's your advantage.
An MP3 CD player is a nice feature in a car - if you make MP3 CDs, you don't have to switch CDs anywhere near as often.

a regular cd depending on what album has a max of what 15 tracks??? if it is your own mix maybe 18??? Well if your car is capable of playing an "Mp3 Cd" go for it...
First you need to have "Mp3s" on your computer, and CD-R blank media that usually is 700MB.
Once you have that, you need a burning client, like Nero, Ashampoo Burning Studio, or any other burning client that gives you the ability to burn "Data" cds or "Mp3 cds" you can play both in a car stereo that plays Mp3 Cds.....oh and the advantage well...lets say one mp3 on your CPU is 5MB then you would be able to fit 140 mp3s on an "Mp3 Cd"
So long story short
a Regular CD>>>>15 tracks
a Mp3 CD >>>>>>100+ tracks

An Audio CD holds about 70mins worth of music, if you copy MP's onto a CD as Data Files you can fit 200-300 Songs on 1 CD versus 25 or so as Audio.
