home listening equipment advice requested?

I'm setting up an 'office' at home.

At present I have a turntable in there; my tape/cd/other turtable are in the sitting room.

Frustratingly I can no longer get by on vinyl alone. I need to play those funny cd-things too. But what to get?

I'm thinking, just a cd walkman. I can plug it into the amp, and use it to replace my tape walkman when out and about (no more chewed tapes).

But I'm wondering:
what gear do I need to burn decent cd mixes to replace my tape ones?
am I living in the dark ages and should really get an mp3 or minidisk player? If so, which? And why?

Advice welcomed! Bring me into 2002!

A CD burner in your computer and software such as Toast Jam or Nero Burning, and a sound card if you don't already have one. If you have a Mac you can use iTunes very effectively. Also you can play mixes straight from your computer using iTunes, WinAmp or similar.
