Is this usable for new cars that don’t have CD players? I’ve read that there are external usb players that will read the player as an iPod in the car and show cd details on the screen. Does this item do that? null

Question

I don't think this can be used in cars since most usb ports for playing music do not produce enough voltage for this.

The LG - 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive - Black, Model # SP80NB80 requires a supported Windows or Mac OS Operating System and specific system requirements for a hard disk drive, available memory, and video memory to operate normally. It will not work with your car stereo. ^Daphane
