High quality music streaming over the Internet to your car stereo

  • 아티클

You may have heard that Ford SYNC (based on Microsoft's Windows Automotive) will play music from your mp3 player, or even from a USB drive, as the video here shows.  Turns out you can also stream music from either a phone or a laptop via a mobile phone Internet connection and Bluetooth using the A2DP profile.  If you're like me, you may have wondered how good the music would sound streaming over first a cell phone connection and then Bluetooth. 

TheRadio.com conducted an experiment to answer this and other questions about the real world experience of streaming music to Ford SYNC.  A few excerpts:

"It's hard to believe we were listening to Internet streams of this quality."

"I am quite pleased at how seamless the handoffs were from one cell tower to the next, added Laramie Guest. Not once did the data session fail to be properly handed off to the next tower."
