Mp3 Audio Books Library
April 10th, 2009
What kind of MP3 player should I get?
I would like to download audiobooks from my library’s website and listen to it in my car.
I’d like one as cheap as possible but of course I want one that won’t break in a week (or a year) and one that can hold enough for a couple audio books.
Thanks all. You have helped me get started in my research since I knew next to nothing about the subject.
War and Peace is 872483 KB, less than 1 GB, so I don’t think I need one with more than 2 GB.
Besides that, cheap + quality really is my biggest consideration at the moment. I don’t want to buy junk, but I can’t afford anything snazzy.
At the moment, I’ve found the 2MB Zen Stone to be in the range of $30-$50. Anyone know of anything better (cheap while still good)?
Oh yeah, and I don’t need one with a speaker either.
If you want an MP3/iPod because you want to have an easy user interface, decent audio quality, a slim music player, high-quality video, and style, get an iPod. They’re stylish, they’re cool, and they’re reasonably priced.
If you want something that you’re gonna use for not just listening to music, but also voice recording, radio, and a cheaper alternative, try an MP3 player. If you want an MP3, try Creative; they make very good MP3 players. http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/
Overall, I’d recommend iPods, but then again, I used to work at Apple, so I might be a little bit biased 
Have fun with your new music player!

Ten $4.31 Part of the ’90s Seattle grunge triumvirate completed by Nirvana and Soundgarden, Pearl Jam debuted with Ten, their most accessible, least self-conscious album. Over time, PJ’s rep as a politically correct band just a little too above it all to prostitute its music on MTV has nearly superseded the music. But before that, they were a simply an in-your-face, in-your-head, loud, melodic rock band. An… |
