This all began when I bought my daughter her first MP3 player. I did not get her the iPod that she asked for in her birthday list. Instead I went online to sites like CNet to look up reviews of the various players, and decided on the Creative MuVo as a nice compromise for under $100. Then it was my job to download the songs. I know I am late in the game - I am not somoeone who has to have the latest greatest technology. I usually wait until the price comes down and the bugs have been worked out. But I think this thing is amazing! It's half the size of a cigarrette case, runs on a single AAA battery, and when you plug it in to the port on your PC, it shows up like another external disk drive!
So then I did reviews of software and websites to download songs, and decided that iTunes was the preferred site even though I did not have the Apple iPod player. That was when I realized that the iTunes software could rip and burn CDs. I decided to compile my own list of the top 100 songs of the last two decades, and burn them to CDs so I could listen to them in the car.
