dunno abt d mp3 conversion but DVD dat is read usin a laser having a much smaller wavelength than d laser used a VCD

AFAIK such conversions not possible

mite wan2 contact d sys mfg 2 c if such retrofitting is possible or not

y dont u buy a media player taht does read DVDs/mp3 and hook it up with ur Sony sys [line-out of ur new player to the line-in of ur Sony sys]

an entry-level VCD/DVD/mp3/DivX player will cost u around 1.5-2K

I own that monster ;) way back in 2001.

Now for ur prob just connect a small mp3 player to front game/sync or to back md/video, simple. :)

For DVD get a standalone player, and do the same as above.

Btw the price of this beast was 37k not 45k.
