mp3PRO, a dreadful format, is not supported on Discovery 3's stereo. It will sound like a 64 kbps normal MP3. Yuck. Avoid.
At most you can have 6 x 700MB, or ~4.2GB of content... which is about the same capacity as a mini-HD portable digital player. This is only a fraction of what you can have on a 60GB portable unit. And, being on 6 CDs without any form of text display, it's very, very hard to navigate through your content.
But I do like having the CD MP3 ability... as long as I rip to higher bit-rate MP3 (LAME encoded VBR MP3 @ standard or extreme settings), everything sounds close to CD.

Grommet,
I agree with you that the MP3PRO format is dreadful. I burned an MP3 CD and converted tracks using MP3Pro as a test. Even my poor musical appreciation can tell the difference between 160kb/s and that used by MP3PRO. I'm not willing to sacrifice quality to that extent for 300'ish tracks, over a standard 150 tracks.
So if I get 150'ish tracks per CD, I can have 900 tracks in total in the D3 multi-changer. That's more than enough for me. Yes it would be nice if the navigation per CD was alpha-numeric but alas we cant have everything!

Admittedly a few years back but I tried a Griffin Ipod transmiter and it was useless. A waste of money.
