LAS VEGAS, Nov. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Mazda North American Operations today treated guests and media to the world debut of the world's first factory- installed in-dash MP3-capable audio system at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas. The system capitalizes on the rapid growth of MP3 music files for personal use and makes it possible for consumers to play up to 10 hours of MP3 recordings on a single disc.

``The market has demanded CD players and now every Mazda vehicle is equipped with an AM/FM/CD audio system,'' said Steve Odell, vice president of marketing and sales for MNAO. ``MP3 is the fastest-growing music format and our younger, tech-savvy consumers are demanding state-of-the-art audio systems and we are meeting that demand as well.''

The system, a joint effort between Mazda and Kenwood, includes a powered sub-woofer, premium speakers and Kenwood's new eXcelon Z919 MP3/CD/AM/FM in- dash receiver/player. Kenwood becomes the first mobile electronics manufacturer to have an in-dash MP3 player installed as an original equipment audio system.

MP3 will never die !!
