    I'm going to be taking delivery of a 2010 Prius w/Tech package this Wednesday, however I have a question regarding the JBL ausio system -- can the 4-CD changer read DVD discs? I have some DVD's packed with MP3's but I'm not sute if the Prius' CD player reads CD's only.

    The Gen II JBL can only read CDs. I don't know if that has changed with the Gen III.

    Unfortunately, no. I've tried single and double layer MP3 DVDs, but no luck. In my previous car, I used to play MP3 DVDs in the nav drive, but that also doesn't work in the Prius.

    The good news is there's supposed to be a USB / iPod adapter available in September, so you can use a thumb drive.
