I almost bought that unit but went with the Sony MEX 1HD both had 10gb hard drives both cost about the same ...the Sony had more features and could burn a CD into the hard drive in about a fifth of the time 7-15 minutes the Pioneer would burn in real time so very slow 40-75 minutes to burn a CD,,,I still have the Sony I was playing with it on a power supply the other day...They both used gracenotes for song and disc id......It was pretty neat back in the day to borrow a CD from a friend and hand it back in 15 minutes or so because it was in the hard drive ...the ultimate CD changer of the day //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
