mp3 and cmd4?

[speck]

i have a 06 210 team, and i believe it has the cmd4. i tried to burn a cd with mp3's and the unit "plays" them (it rotates), but no sound comes out. so am i to assume that the unit does not play mp3 cds? most aftermarket car decks do, even cheap ones. so do i have to buy an mp3 player?

i assumed it could play a burnt cd with regular music on it, but will it play a burnt cd with mp3s on it?

OK, did a little more research and found out that it does NOT play MP3s.
