It is not a nickel and dime thing! It is called innovation! The new high tech black box headunit Malibu is using is not the same as a traditional headunit. There is no place for a single cd. A multi-disc changer is an option! Just like Sirius. But, the box does support mp3, flash, ipod and has an internal 1GB storage. It is also integrated into the factory dash controls. Why should Malibu provide the changer as a standard feature when most people don't want it. Also, they don't include the Sirius box as a standard featuer. The nice thing is, these are option and you can order your system just the way you want it. Just like everything else on the boat!
