If you had a MP3 capable CD-disc change with say 6 CDs in your car, you had 60 CDs at your disposal. Usually that's way more than the number of tapes had in their cars. And the quality was a lot better than tapes.

Plus if you're into audiobooks you could get away with 64kbit mono MP3 which doubles the capacity.
