    Post We made the news again

    Putting MP3 in Your Hot Z3
    by Brad King

    The last, fast mile.

    How can consumers get their music from the computer to the car? That's the problem facing the digital music companies that didn't flame out in the recent bloodletting caused when funding dried up in the industry.

    Wired News Article.

    Awol: Dont make such a gross generalization. There are probably hundreds, if not thousands of z3 owners worldwide. Just because you are the only user on this board (out of like 300) that owns a z3, doesn't mean you're the only z3 owner instaling a computer in his car.

    I did make a gross generalization but I'm on the BMW boards and Z3 boards (one of which is the largest one on the net so far) I would have to say that I'm the only one if not 1 out of a small number who is doing this. Most of the Z3 drivers prefer to get premade deck players if they go MP3 at all. So I think I can fairly state that I'm a rare Z3 owner instead of making performance mods to my car I install a computer. And for your record there should be a lot of Z3 owners in the world at least 50,000+ just look at BMW's sales records for the Z3 ever since 1996. Also I was making a joke about the title of the article it does state "Putting MP3 in Your Hot Z3"
