Or as if the manufacturers could make radios with an audio socket where 
you could plug in any concievable sound source, but instead they all 
created radios with a cassette slot, so 3rd parties came up with a tape 
adaptor...

...oh, wait, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED! >_<

Seriously, is there any specific reason that I can't plug my MP3 player 
into my car? Or is it just so that Renault can extract more money from 
me to have an MP3-capable head unit installed? (And even then it still 
won't play Ogg Vorbis...)
