I listen to CD's a lot, but making a custom batch file to play your favorite MP3s (especially
on a long trip) is better than switching CD's while driving (even though I can do it reasonably
well). As for tapes, I don't really use them anymore, except for the CD adaper.

I found this out the HARD way with my SPARCbook. It took
several MONTHS and 100 bucks to find another machine (dead)
to replace my LCD. The heat almost completely burnt out the backlight... :(
