You will need to 'rip' each music CD to MP3 first, which does take time.

Windows Media Player will do it, as will something like WinAmp.

Amazon will allow you to download all your music as MP3 (well most of it anyway).

Then just copy this to the USB stick and away you go - BUT you may find that your head unit doesn't like the directory (folder) structure and won't play all the music.

On my sony, I had to create a directory for each album and then just copy the MP3 tracks into that after adding the track number at the beginning of the track name (so music became 01 music) this way they still played in the correct order.

Hope this makes sense
