Mine doesn't do anything when I stick one in. It skips regular CDs, so I'm hoping it's just really dirty. I'm about to buy a lens cleaning kit tonight and find out.
Also, which should I get?

People didn't listen to MP3 cds back in '98 and they sure as heck didn't listen to them in '95. I don't think they even had mp3s in 1995. I never put an mp3 cd in my 98 stock monsoon deal but I seriously doubt it would have done anything. I just changed it for a better deck.

Yeah you guys are crazy. If they could play mp3 cd's they would have album + and - buttons. You have no way to navigate a mp3 cd with a monsoon or lower deck from our cars. Period. Unless you guys are talking about just putting 8 or 9 mp3's on a cd and burning it, then yeah that will work, that is a normal cd.

But in all seriousness I doubt any of them do, especially before 99/00 and im sure if GM/Monsoon it woulda been more advertised (most of the CD players ive seen say right on the unit "plays MP3's) especially since it woulda been a newer thing back then. The best thing they offered was the CD changer in the trunk and even that isnt very common from what I see when lookin for cars

Yeah on second thought...I think the cd's that I had with mp3 original music I converted their format to something different to be able to play in my 6 disc. Sorry can't remember was so long ago.
My tape player does play 8 tracks though
