Depends on how you organize your MP3s and how extensively you will be using the search function of the rio car/empeg. In my experience, you can access a certain album and/or song pretty fast, but YMMV.


I would just like to point out to that YOU have control over the interface from the moment you install the unit. You can structure the way you find song to YOUR liking. There is a pretty extensive search function to help with that as well if you keep on top of the MP3 tags.
