Will it play mp3-file CDs? This is a type of CD. Please don't respond unless you know for sure, thanks!

Yes it will, I have tried one that my brother created a while back but we did not have the equipment to try it on until I got the MCR-042. Hope this helps. Also it will play mp3s of a USB flash drive too.

The MCR-042 plays both .mp3 and WMA discs no problem. It also can play from a USB thumb drive. You can skip and ff/few songs from the front panel. However you need the remote to navigate among folders. Please see my review for more info.FWIW...I paid only $120 for the pink one in early June 2014. The MCR-042 has been discontinued by Yamaha. It has been replaced by the MCR-B142 which has Bluetooth and a few other goodies. I don't own that one, however, so I cannot review it.

Not sure if you can play the USB audio, I tried and couldn't "find" the file to play it after I plugged it in. You may be able to play the disc, I've never tried that option, but you won't have the words on the screen. I also use mine as my DVD player for movies, etc when not using for karaoke

yes. mp3 CDs play just fine but I'm having a problem with the casette player. Rattling noise during play is very distracting and it is in the player NOT the casette

If the book is an MP3 file, it will play it, otherwise no. The MP3 function is extremely primitive compared to other dedicated MP3 players, but it does work and the sound out of this little thing is surprisingly good. What I do is use a DOS command on my PC to dump the contents of the mini SD card that contains my MP3 files so I can find a specific MP3 on the player. If you don't know the number of the file on the disk, good luck finding it. It only displays a number, no filenames.

Did you put in a CD that was burned on a PC...? You may have tried playing a CD burned in MP3 format.

The only cds played on it as far as I know are 1D cds that were purchased. What else did you have in mind? Maybe I can try them for you.

Yep. It can play wav or mp3. I think those are the only formats it accepts.

Yes it can play mp3s. However, buying this particular product to play mp3s would be a waste of money.

I purchased this for my wife for audio books-- it works great. I am not sure what the MP3- CD format is we buy the books on tape and it works.

I'm sorry but I know nothing about this instrument, but my CD player does play MP3 but it is not this brand.

Here is the manual for this unit. https://docs.sony.com/release/DFJ61.PDF It has a Line Out, headphone jack and DC (Power) In. It's a CD player, not an MP3 player. I have no idea if it can play MP3 CDs, though, but I doubt it. As for price, this unit isn't manufactured anymore, so if you're looking at the 3rd party price-gouging Amazon sellers trying to sell these off at $200+ ignore them and go for a reasonably-priced used model like I did in the $20 range.

I believe that the ad said that it was mp3 compatible. Unfortunately, the one that I ordered off from Ebay was a piece of junk as it didn't play my cds so, I sent it back and got myself an ipod player.

it says in the description that it does. what I wonder is: does it play MP3 CDs?

If you have a usb mp3 player it will not read the music files. If you copy mp3 files to a usb drive (no folders) it will play them.

Yes, it plays cd's....I am listening to a cd now as I am typing this.......you have the option of just playing a cd or importing it onto your computer. I am very pleased with this item!

i only use standard cd-r which has about 75 min per disc so i never played mp3's but i would have to say yes because there is a mp3 symbol on the unit, again i don't use that format at all

No, it plays only CDs, but it plays them very well. I would highly recommend this!
