You can load your files on a USB thumb drive and pop it in the front USB input and you can use the rotary controller to search for tunes. And it's no problem if you have a lot of music - Alpine's Percentage Search lets you jump through your list quickly using the radio preset buttons.
I hope this is helpful? PLEASE "ACCEPT" and mark it "HELPFUL" to complement my little effort. Hope to bring you more detailed answers
