Hello Nattydawn,

58 percent of drivers listen to a CD player.

Excerpt: 

?Radio still rules as the entertainment medium of choice in cars,
among 96 percent of the respondents. Another 58 percent said they use
a CD player while driving, followed by cell phones (55 percent) and
cassette players (47 percent). Newer technologies are distinctly in
the minority: DVDs (6 percent) and mp3 players (3 percent). Satellite
radio is dead last, with 1 percent.?

?Cassette tape player: This longtime standard feature in cars is
headed the way of eight-tracks. Motorists today want CD players.
Cassette players, combined with an AM/FM radio or with a radio and a
CD player, are in 52 percent of cars sold this year, down from 80
percent in 1998, according to J.D. Power and Associates. About 39
percent of new cars had an AM/FM radio and cassette player in 1998.
Now, only 7 percent come with that combination.?
