The tesco website isn't bad. It has a relatively decent range of stuff, very easy to use and you don't have to download any software to use it (which is a big bonus I thought).

You just search for artist, track etc, click on the track(s)/ album(s) you want, pay for them, download by pressing a button, save them to your computer and then to a CD.

I bet there are loads of better sites and other ways to do it but this is pretty user friendly IMO.

www.play.com has around 1M tracks... ...from 65p each apparently and DRM free

whooooaaaaa.. first thing to check.. does your car cd player support digital formats such as MP3??.. if it does not then I am afraid you have fallen at the first hurdle....

You can use software such as Nero to turn MP3's back into a usable format but you wont get many tracks on a disc and also the quality is really poor....

ok.. then fill you boots.. you can also copy your existing CD's to MP3 format and use these as well..

I make CD's for my daughter and can get around 200 hi quality tracks on a single disc... if you put them in a folder structure

eg artist/cdtitle

Them some systems read this and let you choose by artist name or cd title...

Good luck and enjoy
