Has anyone heard of a MP3 diskmen that reads DVD disk? I though I heard that sony was working on one.... Sure would be cool to store 4 gigs of MP3s on a dvd and pop them in a cd player
 
I have never heard of one, though I'd be one of the first one to get one when it comes out. In theory, a portable dvd player that plays mp3's should be able to play mp3's burned on a DVD provided that you have a DVD burner.
FYI: I have herd DVD+R is much more compatible to DVD players than DVD-R. Also RW DVDs don't work well with DVD players, especially older ones. Also stick with major brands: imation, TDK, etc. Some generic brands work fine, others don't work well.
 
Errr ... I've never heard of one. Anyway, a CD can hold more than enough songs, right?
