you can just plug a standard portable cd adaptor into it as far as I know (you know tape on one end, 3.5mm input on other). Alternatively you can buy something called tunefree which u plug into the ehadphone socket it then broadcasts whatevers playing on fm frequency youd pick one up or about25. legal to buy, illegal to use (like they care anyway)

Cos the Creative Zen doesn't force you to use iTunes.

yeh, beware i've never heard a good FM adaptor working, tho i heard a rumour they exist, i've only heard shit ones. it was like taking your digital audio player, dipping the earbugs in crap, and then putting it in your ears.

the idea is great, but i'm yet to hear it work well.

the tape route is ok, but i often got interference from the car. my current car stereo has a line in, which saves all the hassle.

I decided to get it. suppose its good value at that price. Your praise of it swayed me somewhat aswell. Nice one!
