Question Copying Music to the Hard Drive

Has anyone found a quick way to copy music to the hard drive yet? I asked our local Lexus dealer and they could only talk of individual disk's. I'm hoping someone has used a USB or I-POD to transfer music. If not it takes about 3 to 4 songs to transfer an entired CD to the hard drive.

Question

I have not found a quick way to copy the disc and I don't think one exists, but i'm having other issues with it. If the CD is in and playing it displays titles but once you burn it to a HD it stops displaying them. Does any one else have this problem?

No

Mine has identified every CD and listed every song during recording and playing.

This feature is awesome

I also hear the ML system on the LS is spectacular.

When you copy music to the HD it uses a program called "Gracenote" to label the music. Yes it reads it from the CD while playing, but it can only copy CD info if the CD is labeled with the "TEXT" label on the outer cover. Lexus does provide free updates for Gracenote. Not to be confused with Nav updates, which are still not free.
