do they make single-disc CD/MP3 decks for use in a hi-fi setup?

I want to find a deck-style player, like DVD or VHS deck style, that can play MP3 CDs as well as regular CDs. I'm having a wicked hard time finding one. Most are DVD/CD combos, but this will just be used for a pair of speakers for listening to music. Do they even exist? So far I've found DVD/CD combos and 5-disc CD combos, but I just want a single disc player. Anyone familiar with this territory?

Well...how easy will it be to use an MP3 CD with like 100 songs on it on a DVD player when there's no TV attached? Are the LED panels good enough that you can look through songs and stuff? Are DVD players as fast as dedicated CD players? My mom has a combo DVD/VHS and it's kinda slow playing CDs compared to, say, a portable CD player.

Why not a cheap portable mp3 player, and a cable?

Well, I don't want it to look too ghetto. A nice wooden stand + decks + speakers with stands. A portable may be the way to go. Won't look as nice but it'll do the job :)

The ones we sell at k-mart all support M3us also. Pretty easy you to put one on a disc, and hit play.

The ghetto way is to put a portable MP3/CD player on your line out.

Next question, looking for something under $100, more like $50, that will match the amp. Silver face preferred. I guess I'll go with a DVD player.
