[Vorbis] Does anyone know of any car Ogg-Vorbis players?

[Calabrese]

Thanks, Paul. I thought there was a way of making a
direct connection without sacrificing the CD player,
which I think is a big price to pay. This is the first
time I've heard of that.

BTW, I just got a 2006 xA, and love it, especially the
sound. But I can't wait to hear the next xB with 9
speakers!
