Default Sony MP3 Changers

I see Sony now have a couple of MP3 changers that connect via Unilink.

Does anyone know if these work with previous generation head units like the CDX M750?

I don't see why not. I mean, wouldn't the head unit just see the MP3 disks as disks with loads of tracks on them?

Well, in lieu of any responses from you guys I spoke with Sony.

Took them two days (of research, not delays) to confirm that the new MP3 changers will work with previous generation decks.

What that means is my CDX-M750 is going back in and an MP3 changer will replace my conventional changer.

If anyone in Aus wants an MP3 head unit let me know.

Installed new changer today. Success! I now have access to up to 10 CD's of MP3's through my CDX-750M.

It displays the info of version 1 ID3 tags but I think it skips the info in version 2.

What are he specs of ID3 v1 and v2? Isn't it just track, artist and album info?

I can teel you that the head unit displays the name of the current folder and the title of the track, but I'm not sure what ID3 version the MP3's have.
