In My Humble Opinion
41

I wish I had electronic skills. Since I don’t, I love to read about that kind of stuff.

I’ve decided to add Stephen King’s entire Dark Tower saga to the player.

I should still have enough room for my David Sedaris & George Carlin box sets.

  1. iPod, 3rd. gen.
  2. 15 Gb
  3. whatever RumMunkey said.
  4. AAC, MP3
  5. 3033

With the occasional exeption of news and talk shows, I almost never listen to radio anymore, at least my own. I hear enough of other people’s radios to know that it still sucks. I have ten times the variety of any FM station’s playlist in my pocket. :cool:

  1. Neuros
  2. 20 GB
  3. mp3, ogg vorbis, wma, wav
  4. I listen to mp3 and ogg vorbis (I rip CDs to .ogg), and if I use it to record from the mic or line-in, I save it as .wav and edit/convert to ogg in audacity
  5. Don’t make me count. It’s not even half full, though.

  1. Rio Karma
  2. 20GB
  3. MP3, WMA, OGG, FLAC, WAV
  4. I’ve used WMA in the past, and still have a few of these files remaining as placeholders for lost CDs. I have a library just over 4000 songs in both FLAC and MP3. The MP3 files are for the Karma, while the perfect quality FLAC files form an archive, so I can change to new file formats without getting the CDs out all over again. This actually proved very useful when I recently switched from 192bps OGG Vorbis to 192bps MP3. OGG lost it’s advantage when gapless MP3 became possible, especially since MP3 works with far more products and gives about 5 hours of extra battery life on the Karma. Can’t tell the difference between the two, or with WAV files, but lower encoding rates notably distort high frequency percussion.
  5. My Karma tells me that it’s holding 3557 songs right now, and since I like to include full albums, I’m starting to miss one or two tracks. :frowning: Believe it or not, there’s still nothing else with higher capacity and gapless support (though I think Sony’s latest 20GB offering does). I only have 7 songs of questionable legality, and they were bought from allofmp3.com.

  1. Uh…Crappy ‘NewGen’ non-brand that I got for $50.00 off an eBay store.
  2. 256 MB
  3. MP3, WMA
  4. MP3
  5. No idea, the battery died on me on the train today. Somewhere around 40, I think.

(Yes, it’s cheap, the interface blows, the headphones it came with are intolerably bad, and it chews through AAA batteries like nothing else, but it’s a hell of a lot better for running, and biking to work than my big-ass CD player. Plus, I don’t need to constantly waste money on CDs)

  1. palm Tungsten T5
  2. Removable SD/MMC
  3. Out of the box it has a really crappy RealPlayer jukebox that supports MP3, RA, WMA (?), and WAV. This irked me greatly the music I rip myself is encoded in Ogg Vorbis. I have pTunes, instead. It has a plug-in architecture, so I suppose it could play anything… I just have the plug-ins for it to play MP3, OGG, and WMA.
  4. OGG, MP3.
  5. A 512MB SD card and another 150MB on the internal memory… Probably around 500+.
