juju, what brand was it? Where can I get one?!

I havn't found an mp3-cd-player for under $100, and that one was somehwat buggy and VERY slow (skipping tracks could take 10-20 seconds or more).

I don't know what brand my teacher's boombox was... she told me where she bought it but I don't remember what she said. I practicly freaked out when I saw it and heard the price though. Everyone must've thought I was a complete nut. She even asked me, "What's an mp3-cd?". lol. She'll probably never use it to play mp3-cds. It just happened to be a cheap boombox that was on the shelf when she was looking.

I bought a portable cd player that I use in my car and on the bus to school. It plays mp3's, and I picked it up for $90. Works very well -- it doesn't take more than a fraction of a second to skip to the next track. It does take 30 seconds when you first fire it up, but that's acceptable considering the fact that it can play for 20 hours without stopping. :] It even scrolls the id3 artist and song text across the led while the song is playing.

Its brand is 'Classic', but there are lots of other better brands out there, i'm sure. This was just cheap.

At home I just hook my computer audio out to my stereo's auxiarlly in and fire up XMMS. But I recently bought a DVD player for $130 at Best Buy. I don't remember the model..it's a Samsung. But it plays mp3-cds as well.
