RX-8 AudioLink kit

I have the 6-disc CD changer, and want to be able to play MP3s in my RX-8. I don't have an Ipod, and with no desire to purchase one, it looks like the AudioLink USB MP3 player is the best option for me. Any other good options out there?

One issue is my car also came with satellite radio, and the AudioLink uses the same plug on the stereo. Would it be wise to buy/create an adapter so I can use both? I suspect the plug supplies power and audio, so I wouldn't think it would be a problem, but I don't want to overload or short something out.

Anyone have experiences or input?
Thanks

Anyone know how many pins/wires the OEM satellite plug uses? The Audiolink only uses 8 of the 16 available.
