My new car doesn't have a tape deck
Although I always hated how much the sound quality dropped whenever I used one of those with my Zune a few years ago. I had to practically have the volume on the stereo cranked with the volume of the MP3 player at halfway otherwise it would start to distort. In the summer of '09 I actually destroyed my passenger side speaker because I was listening to Kyuss at too high a volume while driving through some desert in California.
As for FM transmitters, yes they do suck but Reno doesn't have a lot of tall builds that block the radio signals. So long as I don't drive too close to the airport they tend to work, I just hate how all the ones I can pick up today at Best Buy all have sh
it reviews, while all the decently reviewed ones are online only, and brick and mortar retailers are wondering why they continue to loose out to online retailers.
