I think the manual says that CD-RW might not work. I've had no problem in
a 2003 Civic, using CD-R. I think I've used TDK, Memorex, and Office
Depot.

I use CD-Rs from HP right now. They work fine. I dont see the use for CDRW
as cheap as they are now.

My 2003? No. No MP3, No WAV, just audio.

There is an empty connector on the back of my 2003 Civic single-CD.
This is intended for a cassette or CD changer, but the P.I.E adapter plugs
in there. My MP3 player appears as a CD changer that's always on disc one
track one.

The 2004 XM stereo doesn't play MP3.

Most re-writeable media will work. Problem is, RW's are simply less
reflective than pressed CD's. When a diode laser gets use, the output
declines over time. Eventually the player may not play any CD-RW's.
That's probably why Honda doesn't guarantee it.

A laser putting out 50% of it's original output (after several years of
use) may be sufficient for a pressed CD, but won't work for an RW, for
example. The amount of light bouncing back to the sensor lens simply
becomes inadequate.

Short answer: some will some won't
Long answer: There are too many variables to say for sure this brand will or
won't work. I've had different disks play and not play from the same spindle
of media.... go figure. If they play Woo-Hoo; if not, try reburning to another
disk at a slower burn rate.

which cd-rw brand have you tried? fuji cd-r's seem pretty constant. i have
used two whole spindles with them and had no problems on any disk.
