my car got an alpine mp3 player, portable enough for me, im still old school with a cd walkman tho
-
i think mp3 players are a waste of money.
im in my room....i got my computer to listen to music. when im in the car...cds
i never would have a place to listen to mp3s
-
i use it when i go running or bike riding or in college when i'm bored between classes (or during)
-
I'm thinkin of gettin one myself, Smer.
I still have a portable CD player, but I've had it for 3 years now and the shit skips when I walk fast and the sound quality is turnin crappy.
Only thing is that I don't wanna fork out $100 for an MP3 player.
-
I've seen a couple, but they're still quite expensive. I'd rather have a celly w/ an intergrated mp3 player. I'm like Rampant, w/ the comp........discman.
-
i was looking for a Sony MP3 player but those bitches are expensive and i think they only have 2 of them
and it's hard to carry around a clunky cd player while running without having it skip.
the mp3 player i have now is smaller than a credit card length and width wize but the depth is a little thicker than a bic pen.... but the highest amount of storage it can have is 256 mb
i can convert my mp3's to WMA's with about a 96 bitrate (which is a little less than cd quality) and fit a shitload of songs on it but i want MORE!

$ 240 for me :D isn't a euro and dollar about the same now?
-
250$ are like 200€.
Plus I'd rather suggest an Ipod. More space. Much more. You never have to exchange MP3s because of space.. basically.
