I use my 2.1 Soundstation :D
I have a CD player - but wth the Xbox, I can listen to any tracks I like from a number of CDs at the press of a button (on the Xbox controller). I don't even need to pause the game to do so, pressing on button to change soundtrack, or the other to change track.
Granted, that option doesn't suit all games, as Dark Mark told me whilst playing Offspring albums through Wolverine's Revenge, but it suits Burnout 2. If the Xbox version didn't have that option, I would have probably bought the GameCube version.
Can't imagine how you could get into a fast racing game with George Michael playing in the background though, whatever floats your boat.

I bought the Xbox version - racing games sound cool with my own CDs playing in the background (or recorded onto the Xbox anyway)
