    Anyone use a USB cd player successfully in their mirage?

    One of the bummers of modern cars is losing a CD player. I like CDs.

    With my 2023 mirage I tried a Usb cd player that was rated for car use. It just shows up as an unrecognized device.

    I could go the route of a cd player that transmits to an FM frequency, but wondering if anyone has gotten a USB cd player to work in their mirage?

    Unless it presents the CD as MP3 files it won't be able to stream an audio CD over USB.

    why not use a computer to copy the contents of the cds onto a flash drive? it cant be that inconvenient, i doubt your cd collection grows often.
    please consider checking out my Mirage related youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6c...IEViRFw/videos

    My 2017 Mirage ES has a CD player, but I still did what Mohammad had suggested. I have downloaded most of my favorite CDs onto a 32GB USB zip drive. A 2017 Mirage USB cable is located in the glovebox, and my zip drive is just hooked up all the time. If I want to listen to CDs, I don't have to bumble around with cases, load them into the player, & such.

    Thankfully, I was able to do this with my old MacBook Pro laptop from school.
