Pros of IPOD: cool, holds lots of songs
CONS: sound quality (since I will be using the radio wave thingie), possible theft

Pros of CD changer: blends in with the car, sound quality.
cons: can only hold 6 cd, and have to open trunk to change cds.

 
my headunit dont have an aux in, and I dont want to change my head unit (want to keep that original look)
 
the quality wont be that poor cuz teh transmitter is right there.. if youve got original factory head unit sound Q doesnt really come into play anyways
 
cd changers stink, I have one, if you get tired of the same cd's you have to stop and change the cartridge (mine's in the trunk).

My bro got me an ipod and I havn't used my cd changer since, well once when my gf bought a new cd and wanted to listen to it.
 
The changer. Or get an mp3 deck for the car.

The ipod has a better chance of getting stolen or lost.

my Accord came with a six cd in dash changer then I have my mp3 discman hooked up through the cassette player. When 20 gig players get cheaper though, I'll get one for the car. That would be very nice.
 
I bought a sony 10 disc changer off of ebay for $100, I have a sony head unit so it matched right up. It's nice, probably 8 of the 10 cd's in the changer have never left since I bought it last march (and that was with a summer driving four hours nearly every weekend). It's in the center console of my truck, so I can change CDs very easily, although I did debate getting another cartridge for it so I could swap in another 10 CDs while driving, but I decided I didn't have enough music to make it worthwhile.

I looked at getting an ipod, but I figured the $100 investment was a better deal for me, because I'd only use the ipod in the car. Plus I don't have to worry about taking it out of the truck every time I park it.
