has anyone tried to use their lap-top to transfer songs onto there avic-z1? if you have, what do you do??

thanks

That's a good question- I'm sure it doesn't work, though. That would be too easy, and it seems, thus far, that Pioneer isn't into easy.

We can't even transfer music by taking out the hard drive and unlocking it and putting it into a pc. Music download into the Z1 will most likely never happen via bluetooth, it might happen by pulling out the hard drive but it's very difficult.

Mini firewire or 2.0 USB slot would have been just too smart and too perfect on this unit! Grrr.

I think the reason they dont allow direct MP3 dumps is to deter piracy. In reality though, theres nothing preventing you from burning your pirate songs to a cd and loading them into the library that way, so the whole thing is stupid and just more of an annoyance.
