You can by a pink skin for one at skinit. I probably will.
Okay, but why put them in a car? Why attach it to a plasma TV? What's the benefit?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why attach it to a plasma TV?
Media server, kinda TiVoish.
Don't get the car thing, though, unless it's a music server.

Some of them are. Some of them aren't.
I mean, I could put my entire CD collection on a mini and load it into my car. That's even better than PhatNoise.
And, see, this is why I need to stay away from that site. I turn into an episode of Pimp My Ride.

An 80G mini, Kristen? Cause otherwise, why not just get an iPod?
Huh.

Oh sure. Be practical.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Because an iPod can't be loaded with a DVD filled with even more MP3s, or a casual CD here and there on the fly.

They have these cool things that they'll install in the factories in most cars these days. I think they call them CD players.
Why would I want more intelligence in my car? GPS and directions and mapping with a link to the current traffic and weather conditions -- that'd be nice. Tapping my phone into my car's electronics (pausing the music when it rang, etc) would be good. Hooking the PDA somehow so it'd remind me (even when I'm not in the car) to make an appointment to get my oil changed would save my brain cells too.

The thing about my car is.... well, even though I spend a damn lot of time in it, I honestly don't want to be loading CDs on the fly while I'm driving down the freeway.

Badfinger was another unlucky band.
I was going to mention them. Those sensitive Power Pop boys go right under: Badfinger, Material Issue, Gin Blossoms - songwriter suicides all of 'em.

Punk is hazardous to your health.
Read that as pink. Was confused.
Hey, she copped to it in a song. Also, her debut video had her jumping a motorcycle between buildings and into her ex's apartment window in lieu of a Dear John letter. I think the hazard probably applies.
