How to play iPod in Car

iPods are very popular devices, but many people have problems getting them to play in their vehicles. This article looks at ways you can play an iPod in your car. As many drivers know, music in the car is one of the best cures for long car rides or big traffic jams, and most cars come equipped with radios, cassette players, CD players or some combination of the three. An engrossing interview on the radio or a few CD mixes can provide a bored commuter with hours of entertainment and might even make all that burned gasoline seem worth it.

If you own an iPod and you're wondering about the best way to play your favorite tunes through your car's speakers, there are several options. Maybe you've heard of devices like the iTrip, an FM transmitter for the iPod that allows you to play an iPod over the speakers. Some newer cars, on the other hand, come with iPod docks built in. And about those cassette adapters, read on to find out which method is best for playing your iPod when you're on the road.

The other way to play your iPod through your car speakers is by using a iPod FM Transmitter for anyone who does not have a tape deck in their car. These devices are a little more expensive than the cassette adapter because they also contain a built-in charger for your iPod. Simply plug in your iPod into the device and you can have your iPod constantly charged and send out a FM signal that you car radio will pick up. The cool thing is that you can set the transmitter to broadcast an FM signal to any frequency between 88.1 and 107.9. You can basically create your own radio station with your iPod music.
